I have a stash of sugar free lollipops, but some folks get loose stools from sugar free candy. Whatever you do, DO NOT EAT SUGAR FREE Gummy BEARS!!!!!!!!! :(:huh: :wacko: Look up the thread. You will be horrified and amused at the same time. You have been warned.

I'm about 8 weeks out. I've noticed that when I eat sugar it seems to set the carb monster loose. I intentionally had a latte with Syrup in it (I was feeling bad/weak and hoped the sugar would help. It did.) After that I craved sweets for 3 days. I dunno, maybe it is all in my head! Protein bars seem to do the same thing to me because they are too much like candy. For that reason Protein Bars are a no go for me at this time. I need to find some carbs for pre-exercise that don't set the carb monster loose.

I'm having a hard time these last two weeks!! I have loss like 63 pounds surgery dec 10 and I'm starting to be able to eat more!!! I do have at a but not to many like a whole what low carb wrap half of it and maybe some rice but nothing to be worried about!!!

It scares me bc I went from not eating not being hungry to now I have hunger pains if I don't eat or I get sick!!! Lost 63 pounds and I still wear te same size it's disheartening and you try to stay focus but it's hard!!!

Just my mind killing me right now my hormones are whacked right now

      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. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
