How is a discussion about whats organic n not organic off topic? Did i miss something? Did someone get mad? It would be alil silly to argue or get mad over a simple conversation.

I dont know either. The fact remains that I've developed food problems after the surgery that I never had before. Its actually a good thing to talk about different diets. We need to get in good nutrition. If we don't look at what we're eating, how much, when we need good nutrition, that's a problem.

I did look this up and came up with the following. I believe you are right in that there are no hormones, but there are a number of other items (antibiotics, etc.) that are in the meat or the conditions such that make a more likely ground for problems to enter the food supply.

You are right, I get the bird I do because its fed differently, raised in a very different atmosphere, and is doggone tasty because it gets plucked, the feet and head lopped off and given to me. I have enough problems eating without adding to it.

Anyway - you are right on the hormones, its the other things I have some reservations about also.

Thank YOU for passing that on. When you are used to seeing such a difference between these huge farm building never see the light birds and the pasture where my birds are raised, you really go

what is going on here? Both turkeys, both chickens and they do NOT look alike. I mean rabbits are rabbits but the chickens look different, act different and the eggs are QUITE different.

        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.

      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
