Ok...I have to confess...last night I went out with my husband and children to a mexican restaurant and had some chips and salsa and then almost a whole taco (not lean) with sour cream (not fat free). I tolerated it very well but was so full I was almost sick. Feel super guilty and refocused today :/

Please share some of your weakest moments! We all have them and have to get thru them :) :)

No blasting for bad choices- just sharing please!

Decided I needed garlic chicken from my fave restaurant yesterday at lunch. Only ate 4 oz, but got sick as I may have ate it too fast [or maybe it was too much quantity or maybe it was too spicy]. Sure tasted good, [while it lasted].

I haven't gone 'hog wild" but I will taste or take a chuck of about anything. However, Hubby and I went to Applebee's the other day. I ate way too many chips and salsa. I felt like crap for at least two hours. Thank goodness I just got Soup with it or I would have been in bad shape. But the salt was soooo good. Darn PMS! :P

I have at salsa and low sodium chips... Basically because nothing else would stay down, and I needed to eat. The salsa was freshly made so I don't consider it a cheat when I still stayed within the guidelines.

Today I went to Boston market and got chicken with vegetables. Just picked at it. Trying soapy ways toget Protein in, but it's hard for me

ALL THINGS IN MODERATION!!! Yes, one is better than four slices! lol We all need to learn to live a normal life and a little cheat now and then does not hurt.

I don't like the word cheat!! Especially since we can eat regular foods just in moderation. I see nothing wrong with a nibble here or there just as long as its not nibbling all day all night every day. But if you have 5 chips in a week that's pretty good instead of the 5 bags a week. Or the one slice of pizza compared to the whole thing. Plus the toppings on pizza are good for you depending in the toppings. cheese is. Veggies are. Protein in sausage and the other meats. The only thing not so good is the bread but we are allowed to have some breads in moderations. Please don't use the word cheat!! It just makes you feel guilty like you did something bad and need punished for!! We are human!!

I really like what you said. It's hard not to feel guilty but you're right we're allowed things in moderation.

      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.
