I'm on soft food now. I bought pizza sauce, turkey pepperoni, and low fat cheese. I just microwave it together in a bowl. I tried it on a tortilla but that was too much for my pouch.

Did u get the regular pizza sauce or do they sell lite

I got Ragu pizza sauce in a jar. 4 ounces has 5 carbs and 3 grams of sugar. I only use about an ounce, 4-5 pepperoni and a sprinkling of cheese.

Ok this is a little off the wall, but going thru my Rachel Ray magazine I found a fork that would be great for all of us losers... It's called a HAPIfork. It vibrates and lights up when you are eating too fast! Tracks your total meal time, time in between meals and more! And they are only $100 each, yes each!! Technology.... Hmmmmm

I've been using the app Eat Slower. It's free and you can set your bite intervals. You can have it vibrate or alarm when it's time for another bite!

I am still on boost shakes and water... I hve no problem with Water or sf Jello or broth but these boost shakes make my stomach hurt so bad for like an hour! I don't know what to do because they are the only thing I'm cleared to drink with any nutritional value. But they make me sick

Between the weight I lost pre op and the amount I've lost post none of my clothes fit. My ring stopped fitting before surgery and I was super sad because I had just gotten engaged mid October and by end of December I couldn't wear it anymore. It's so beautiful sometimes I go peak at it lol

18 days out and I've hit a stall the last 4 days. So frustrating. I'm getting all my Protein in, 60g, but I'm having an issue getting 64oz of fluids. I find it hard because of having to sip. Going to try upping my protein intake to see if that helps.

I hit a stall at 15 days out my doctor said the 3rd week usually is the first stall. My stall broke shortly after. Good luck! :)

      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.
