Recommended Posts

Someone had metioned heating wuest bars to make them taste better...did I misread that? I just tried the choc chip cookie dough and not a fan but didn't know if heating really does help

I have read that too but haven't tried it. I have a couple more of them and will try that. I didn't care for the ones I've eaten so far.

I am CRAVING carbs tonight. I want like a pound of Pasta with Alfredo sauce and bread. It's driving me nuts. I haven't had a carb craving in almost two months. It's almost like quitting smoking.

Before surgery I would sub plain Greek yogurt for sour cream. Adds Protein to the dish. I tested with my kids on tacos one night and they couldn't tell the difference,.neither could I. Just thought I'd share this tip.

Me too! Wanted to make a box of angel hair parmesan pasta sooooo bad! I keep looking at the box. Finally I just came upstairs away from food. I hate it when this happens! I know that if I made it id only be able to eat a little bit and would feel yucky. So then do I still crave it? UGH! frustrating!

That flavor is my favorite but you're right. I don't really care for them unless they're warm. 15 seconds in the microwave softens them up and changes the flavor and consistency for the better.

Here is my pizza stuffed zucchini I made last night. Of course I could only eat about 1/4 of it but great leftovers! I sliced a zucchini from our garden, scooped the seeds out to make a boat shape. Then put a couple tablespoons of fresh puréed tomatoes also from the garden, sprinkled a little feta and LF mozzarella with some Italian seasoning, topped with quartered Turkey pepperoni. Bake at 375 for 30 mins! Soft and delicious. Great pizza alternative.

What about spaghetti squash? Would that be a good alternative? I bet it would be good with pesto. I make it with a meat sauce (I use ground turkey) and some Parmesan cheese. I haven't had it since my surgery.

Love spaghetti squash, but there's nothing like pasta...I've resigned myself to an almost carb-less life, alas. Carbs got me fat, and I'm totally addicted to them, so I try not to even go there. Going to state fair this weekend, should be interesting trying to find something to eat.

      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.
