My Lunch: A Pictorial Attempt To Show You Life Will Be Normal



Recommended Posts

I'm four months out so cleared to eat almost everything except I haven't dared too many raw veggies. Are you going to post your meals luminous?

As soon as I am consuming more than Water lol :) I love cooking and take pictures of everything I prepare anyway.

May not look very appetizing but it was quite delicious and satisfying. Barely able to finish it all.

Crockpot chicken curry with steamed zucchini. Yum!

Had 5 guys-bacon cheeseburger and cajun fries.

I am one who didn't have this surgery to give up my fav's.

So, I had the patty, cheese, bacon, grilled onions and like 6 fries w/ vinegar.

I threw out the bun minus 1small nibble.

I did not finish the whole patty. At 2 bites left I gave up bc afraid to over eat.

And yes, I did put it in mfp.

Lets be honest here.

I was really there for the cajun fries.

The burgers are good, but I'm a recovering fry gal.

To eat only 6, and only after my Protein was a major victory for me.

Yes, 800 cal is high but I'm ok w/ that.

Their fries must have crack in them. There is NO other explanation for what they are so good. I used to get them when I flew out of La guardia but only if there was someone with whom to share both the fries and the kids burger.

I do look forward to being able to do that once in a while as a treat. Right now, eating a burger patty doesn't appeal, and although I have a very accommodating sleeve, I suffer with potatoes so it's keeping me out of trouble.

For now.

Okay good example of what NOT to eat. I didn't have time to get Breakfast at the airport. Flying upgraded today, and this is what Delta gives you for breakfast. That muffin top? Aptly named. 31 gms of carbs. Practically my whole day's carb allowance! I will eat the top of the unstirred yogurt and get 8 gms of Protein, and potentially a little fruit.

In contrast my very delicious and sleeve friendly dinner. Jumbo sea scallops and grilled asparagus with edamame before. I was able to eat 1.5 scallops and 2 spears of asparagus. So good!

Breakfast in India (but western breakfast): scrambled eggs, toast, hash brown, sautéed mushrooms, roasted Tomato. Seem big? Here is a before/after. I'm quite full. Really enjoyed the mushrooms.

      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.
