6 months and looking for snacks



Recommended Posts

I am almost 7 months out and I eat pretty much anything. I do eat crackers sometimes, but I am careful to eat them with something a little more filling so they don't slide right through. I also make sure I weigh out just one portion into a bowl then put the rest away.

Other Snacks I have: fruit (nectarines are a current favorite), slim jims, nuts, cottage cheese, and my absolute favorite is half an apple sliced up and paired with a single slice of smoked gouda!

if you are doing low carb high Protein, hardboiled eggs, beef jerkey or pepperoni sticks (if you can do it ok), ham chunks, macadamia nuts, celery with a bit of cream cheese or Peanut Butter.

My favs are mixed nuts, edamame, apples with PB, string cheese, seasoned pumpkin seeds, kale chips, and plain Greek yogurt flavored with Protein Powder. And I gotta admit, I like my Protein Shakes.< /p>

Kindle we like some of the same things. Baby bel mini lights, cottage cheese, beef Jerky, snow peas (this is new for me), half a Quest bar, 100 calorie packs of almonds (keeps me honest), freeze dried edamame. Still like Protein shakes (Premier). Chike for a treat.

But I can relate. I get bored with my food too. When I'm looking for new options I'm avoiding packaged processed foods.

Arctic Zero ice cream. the whole pint is 150 calories! The choc Peanut Butter is not bad. 3g Protein per serving.

      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
