well i am finally in green it took a few years !! But here is y problem i dont eat a lot i mean last night for dinner we had home made boboli piza i can eat 1 small slice and i feel like i ate a 5 course chicekn dinner . today for Breakfast i had a avocoda . then lunch was a spinach slad with some fresh motzerella on at and a small amount of some shopped walnuts and i cpuld not finish that . and ok this after noon i had a few pieces of cut up bread in some flavored olive oil but bread really sometimes does not agree with me but i do crave it once in a while . I do like to have thise veggie straws for a night snack sometimes . i have not lost a sibgle lb or gained but i stay the same even if i work out that week . my surgury was in aug 2009 i was 241 i am now 152 give or take i wanted to loose 30 more but it just seems my body is like nope no way . it is bad enough i have the fat extra skin from loosing the weight , i am hoping there are some of you out there that can help me loose this last amount i need too. i fel like my body has just settled and this is where it wnats to be . I am pretty restricted. I can not eat untill like 11 am and i really do not eat a lot at all. Maybe this is where my body wants to be

thanks

Protein levels are critical... protein intake first, veggies second, carbs last. Do you have access to a NUT?

Maybe I will try that next week. It is hard cause my hubby cooks and I feel bad. But he makes me tons of veggies

Just tell hubby what you need. He prolly wants the best for you and Protein is very important to WLS ppl.

Not much Protein in broccoli. If you are not in-taking at least 6o grams of Protein you will not lose weight; and what you might lose is muscle mass and not fat!

        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
