Wow.. Tara yeah we see the difference... congrats.. Can I ask what date was your surgery and what are u eating for the diet? I need some i de ideas :)

I had surgery on September 5th. Im almost back to full solids now so my diet may be a little different than yours at this stage... I dont have any specific things that im eating, as far as like recipes and stuff. I bean chili with no meat, im making the ricotta bake everyone raves about tonighy so we'll see how that tastes. Ive struggled with knowing exactly what to eat so I get in ruts from time to time.

HI Everyone My surgery was Sept 23rd, I was wondering if anyone else has started to feel hungry? Today I've been wanting to eat salty foods, almost craving them. I wasn't sure if this is normal or maybe it's just my head telling me I should be eating.

Are you getting all your Water in? Craving salty could be a sign of dehydrated. I had surgery on September 4th and have been dehydrated - I should have gone to the Doctor - instead I just keep pushing the fluids. I track my water intake because I am so bad at getting my 64 oz in a day. I have to ask myself if I am hungry or is it a craving. I would live to eat - now I eat to live - believe me I could eat - I was really afraid the Doctor was going to tell me after surgery that he had never seen such a big stomach!

      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.
