I chew them so much that there is nothing left of them.

The wheat thins reduced fat and home made plain yogurt is my thing. I hate food this week. Looking at a plate of food literally made me gag yesterday

Okay' date=' UPDATE: I went in and it wasn't my lymph nodes. Shows how much I know! She thinks it's staph. GROSS. I'm on antibiotics and I have to use that hibiclens stuff again. If this is the only complication I get, that's fine. But still...it's SO SUPER PAINFUL![/quote']

I hope you feel better soon! :(

Ok so I have been nauseous every time I think about food. I'm hungry and take one bite and that's it! I'm sickened! So I started thinking about all the sf shit I have been eating and now I'm wondering if my pouch doesn't like the SF substitutes. I was drinking soy milk ( when it didn't make me gag) tried almond milk ( totally gross) bought skim milk lady night and had life Cereal...omg. My pouch liked it! No problems! So what do you think about my theory? Slow down on the sugar free I say. I never thought that stuff was good for you anyway.

Thanks for the compliment. Room mother tho?? I'm only 42! LOL! I just did so much research beforehand and still research each problem I hear about. I like helping people! ;) Procedure hurt like HELL, I'll be honest. Is still very tender today. He did the nerves on both sides at 3 levels, so SIX needles and burns. Ice, vicodin, and rest is all that's on the schedule for me today! Good thing I'm not working now. Can't go back until I see the back surgeon in June. I've had a nice long leave! :)

I'm not much with the sugar free stuff either but I also I'm afraid to have anything with sugar so I've just avoided it except in my yogurt I eat Dannon Light and fit Greek yogurt but I went through a phase from Sunday to last night that I was nauseous over everything so I don't know

I drink 1%, cuz that's what my family would compromise on. No skim for them, and 2% tastes like cream to me. I am so hungry for Cereal, and Life is so good, except I like the cinnamon one. Probably not a good choice! ;) I really don't eat any sugar free stuff, except for the popsicles.( and they are really no sugar added) Good theory if you ask me. There is a lot of bad stuff in sugar free stuff I think. (Additives and whatnot)

      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.

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
