Name something strange and super unhealthy that you used to eat before weight loss



Recommended Posts

When I was a (fat) kid I used to take my mashed potatoes and kernel corn from my dinner plate and put them between a slice of white bread. Gross!

What strange and super unhealthy concoction did you eat before weight loss?

it would be easier to name things that I did not eat. I love cheeze whiz and bacon bits on ritz crackers.

My grandmother introduced me to Peanut Butter and Karo Syrup.< /p>

I knew that low-fat Peanut Butter wasn't for me the first time I tasted it. Sure enough it has added corn syrup.

Since childhood I've had a love affair with Condiments. ketchup, honey mustard, ranch dressing mixed with hot sauce, soy sauce, Polynesian sauce, and especially barbecue sauce. I can and have eaten BBQ on anything and everything. Giving up my barbecue sauce has been so hard! I can't find any without any high fructose corn Syrup which is a big no-no for my doc. -_- But I'm still alive! :D

It never ceases to amaze me how I can taste the sugar that is laden into foods (UNNECESSARILY) now that I eat clean. It really makes me mad trying to find dried fruit that has no added sugar for cripes sake!!! I don't eat peanuts because I follow Paleo but the kind that you can grind yourself in the store rocks because you can taste the peanuts rather than the sugar -- it simply is not necessary.

Frozen Bagels. Don't ask me why by, nibbling on them in front of the TV was a favorite past time. But actually, I ate quite a few unfrozen ones with margarine, too, Not a strange unhealthy habit, but I'm sure that 25% of my excess weight is bagel!

        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
