Recommended Posts

I had scallops the other night. Pre surgery I would throw a mountain of ritz crackers soaked in butter on top of them. The other night I had them pan seared with salt pepper and a little lemon. They were 100% better then the pre surgery ones. I could actually taste them. Sweet' date=' salty, sour. Yum. I might have to get some for tomorrow.[/quote']

I grilled mine with a little salt and pepper and squirted lemon at the end. They were wonderful. We have access to wonderful fresh seafood here in Florida and I'm grateful I love seafood because it is low fat, high Protein and very satisfying! :)

Same here. I'm on cape cod. My friend "fished" the scallops the morning I had them for dinner. Can't get much fresher. I think I could live off seafood and fish. Yummy.

I actually haven't but I might be with you on having it this weekend. Maybe I'll make loster salad minus the celery. Thank god seafood/fish is included on my soft foods diet. I think I would have gone crazy if I couldn't have it until the beginning of August.

Yep I am so glad it is on mine too because I can't stand Protein Shakes. I am trying to get my Protein from food. It is really hard to get to 60-65 grams but I am trying. Greek yogurt at 15 grams is my bff except I can't quite finish them.

Veggie burger--black bean, red salsa, and a side of spinach. It was good. I'm blessed that my pouch has accepted everything I've tried so far. I still don't feel full at all after 3 weeks post op, so I'm measuring to avoid overeating.

I've become a fan of creamy pumpkin Soup, I get it from Woolworths, 300ml tub. Some days I struggle to have it all, just recently, I've been almost tempted to have more, but I don't. If I'm eating solid food, might manage almost a cup of food, including salad, but mostly, six months out, five strictures in the early days, I like porridge in the morning, about a half a cup, lunch is my soup, sometimes some crackers with cheese, and dinner can be a mix but usually chicken or seafood. I'm wondering if anyone can tell me the sizes of their meals? I'm worried I may be stretching the pouch?

I'm worried about the same thing. I started a thread yesterday "Amount of Food"

Is it weird that nothing has affected me yet? I've had alot of foods that bother other people including chicken and haven't gotten anything stuck or tossed a cookie yet. Also I've only felt full a few times. I'm not complaining in anyway but is this happening to anyone else? I'm a little over three weeks out and on soft foods.

I haven't gotten sick or had any issues either. I do measure everything and take chew really well taking my time to eat my planned meals. I even had 1/4 cup of blueberries today with some cottage cheese. It is easier for me to eat now than it was with my band.

No, just consider yourself lucky! You'll find something eventually that will bother you, I'm sure.

Nothing has bothered me at all. I can eat all meats. I have not had anything stuck, thrown up nor have i dumped.

      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.
