Went through halloween with not 1 piece of candy! First EVER!



Recommended Posts

I cant beleive it... I did not pop 1 piece of halloween candy in my mouth this whole season. Im sorta afraid to because right now, I cant remember how good it tasted and I dont want to remind myself. It paid off - 33 lbs down today and Im actually wearing skinny jeans tucked into boots!! And I got a compliment from the very 1st person I saw today: She said I looked great in this outfit. Small victories/feeling happy! :):D:):D

That is a great achievement - congratulations! It's kind of scary to think of going back to eating "normal" food... I kind of don't ever want to because I don't want to end up where I was before!

Me neither, I'm trying to stay true to this liquid diet. My daughter baked Cookies yesterday to bring to her brother at college and left one on the cooling rack. It's still there, I think she was testing me.lol

Same here! I resisted but wasn't even really tempted that much. I'll be glad when it's all gone (this weekend it's going in the trash) so I don't have to even think about it. Before I would had hidden pieces all over the house for "later." Victory!!!!!

Lol my kids used to hide their candy from me!

I'd go in their rooms and hunt it down when they went to school.

Even for those of us that were a little weak and had something naughty, just think of what damage we would do prior to surgery. We would buy our candy and then have to buy more for the trick or treaters because we had eaten it all. I would have candy wrappers stashed in my purse and would hide the evidence under the garbage so I wasnt found out. Those days are over.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
