Hi there,

I get boneless skinless chicken thighs as they fall apart nicely and can be made into a lot of yummy dishes, but any kind of chicken can be used. Here's how I often cook: heat up a pan until it's really hot, add a little high-heat oil and brown the chicken well on both sides. Take it out and set aside for a minute (note it is not cooked yet, just browned) and use the pan to sauté whatever veggies you like. We cook with a lot of garlic, sometimes leeks are nice, ginger root if we're going Asian, etc. Be creative. Then add the chicken back in and cover with chicken stock. Instead of the stock (or in addition to it) you can add a can of coconut milk if you'd like to have a delicious ginger coconut chicken dish, or add in a jar of peanut sauce, etc. White wine and herbs, a little butter. You get the idea. We are not eating very much of anything so why not make it delicious? Sometimes I do a curry. Simply add the curry spices at the time you are sauteing the veggies (curry likes a lot of onions, etc., and carrots are yummy, leeks -- whatever you like -- for those who eat potatoes cube or slice them small and add them as well). Frozen peas work well. If you like a red sauce just open up a jar or two and cover the chicken with that. The key is to let it all simmer for a couple of hours until the chicken is really falling apart. We call our pot the Magic Blue Pot because whatever we cook in it is absolutely delicious. My family has the chicken on top of rice and I have my little bowl of just the chicken and sauce. Life is short; I want sauce.

I get thighs and put them in the crock pot Sprinkle with a packet of dry ranch and pour a jar of herdez green salsa over it. Cook for about 6 hours on low. Yum!

        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
