Recommended Posts

At 3 weeks out, I was still puréed foods. Now at around 15 weeks, I can have about 3-4 small meatballs with a lil sauce ...no pasta...and I'm stuffed!!!! Funny thing is...I still think about food I can't have. I even buy it sometimes, take 1-2 bites and end up giving it away. Not sure why I do that...but my boyfriend ....who is thin as a rail...doesn't mind cuz he's the beneficiary of my leftovers!!!! Lol

I made mini turkey meatballs the other night. Six meatballs = 1/4 pound. I can only eat THREE of these before I get the hiccups.

I got the recipe here:

I'd recommend using non extra lean ground meat. I used extra lean ground turkey and they are pretty dry. Good, but dry. :)

Maybe I should skip the taquitos and substitute manicotti?

No that's what you use to drink the soda with.

It cuts down on the gas bubbles as it passes along the ridges, so you won't blow open your tummy.

Well poop on a biscuit! I've been using a good old fashioned straw. I have noticed the triple scoop of ice cream adds Protein and helps cut the carbonation in my soda.

Oh yes the Protein float!

Just make sure it's full sugar because that soda with fake sugars will kill you!

I sometimes buy the Tijuana zebra brand.

      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.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
