I can smell the lasagna in my house!



Recommended Posts

I had surgery on October 30th! Why do I have a sense of smell? Weren't they supposed to remove that with my stomach? I smell the lasagna and I just wan t to lick it! I guess I'll take another sip of my Protein shake :-P

I went and done the stupidest thing ever...I made my family the most beautiful pan of lasagna I've ever made in my life...5 days out from surgery. UGH! It didn't bother me a bit to make it, but later when they would heat up left overs, the smell literally made me drool every time. I finally sent the rest of the pan to work with my 20 year old son to share with the other guys he worked with. My

Husband said "that's not fair! I wanted more" I said "sorry bud, but I had to get it out my house, cause I was almost to the point of wantin to just get in it and roll around in it" I'm NOT kidding! I had no issues till I made that blasted lasagna and it's been downhill since with the food smells (Italian destroys me the worst!)

My mom has the same meals she's been making for YEARS; one of them is Spaghetti. Well, I don't know what happened, but about a year ago, I stopped liking it; the smell, the taste, everything! I've told her multiple times I don't like it.

Last night, guess what she made?? I know she made it with good intentions because she didn't wanna make something that would tempt me (4 days post op here), but I kid you not, I WOULD'VE EATEN SOME IF I COULD'VE!!!

Yeah, I was suprised at how good food still smells and that I kind of want it. I didn't think I'd want anything.

      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
