Does anyone's doctor say they need to stay away from white potatoes? Mashed potatoes are one of my favorites to make or order for dinner when out. They are smooth and go down easy. I know they have starch and sugar, but I can only eat a little bit anyways.

Mashed potatoes are on the list they gave me for puréed foods to try. They do say to limit how much of it you eat since its no Protein.

I think most everyone is on the same page with Protein first, then veggies and fruit. As for bread, I can have whole grain Pasta, bread or crackers, just have to look for low sugar, 3 or more grams of Fiber and low fat. I have been reading a lot of labels for nutrition content and to vary the diet. After eating protein and little veggies, there's not much room for anything else!!

I have trouble with chicken every time! Had baked thigh tonight and it came back up. Had chicken x 3 and it came up x 3. Guess its time to quit trying! Hope u have better luck.

I also have a problem with chicken either it will make me sick or I wish I get sick because it will feel so heavy in my pouch

Same. Which is fine because I'm a carb addict. I haven't had any carbs in almost three weeks and I'm feeling good. Not sluggish anymore.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
