Be careful with the potato. It's really a starch. Try cream of wheat the healthy one mixed with milk. chicken in the crock pot. Beef in the crock pot, very easy to shred. I froze shredded meats in muffin tins and them popped into freezer bags. I even cooked a large pot of chili in the crock pot and froze 25 muffin tins worth ( they pop right out like ice cubes) and I measured 1/4 of a cup o the chili and then wen you defrost add some cheese on top. Great Portion Control too.

I also purchased 4oz Rubbermaid containers and divided yogurt and cheese up, even scrambled eggs or the cream of wheat. All to keep my meal under the oz my NUT said. I am 3 months out and still measure this way. I have a small Pyrex custard cup I use at work and know that once I fill my food to the line it's 1/4 to 1/3 of a cup taking into consideration the space. I sometimes can't finish that but try hard to get the Protein in. I eat a lot of Beans and Lima Beans for Snacks plus peanuts or yogurt measured out.

Let me know I you need some recipes.

      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.
