Still on purees.....took some spam and put it in the nutribullet..... Looked like pink slime. So I cooked like two tablespoons...... Ohhhhh man! Sooo good! Tastes like bacon! Add some mash potatoes and you've got an awesome meal!

One thing my surgeon warned me about in my first consult was people pureeing spam, big macs, oreos etc, basically stuff full of fat and/or sugar and not losing weight because of it, and actually gaining.

Did you use like the turkey spam or lite spam? I am a spam fan. lol

The thought of meat pureed makes me gag, and I haven't even had surgery yet. I love food, but not enough to puree a big mac. Icky.

I'm thinking that I may have my husband prepare the pureéd foods, measure them out, and I'll just eat with my eyes closed.

My NUT, and fitness trainer both suggested chili. They said it is a lifesaver. :) I will likely be eating a lot of cottage cheese, and Beans lol

@@jenbaby75 Me too! When he told me that I was shocked, I don't even like McD's not pureed, I couldn't imagine throwing one of those nasty burgers in a blender and drinking it. Plus all the sodium in those prepared meats like the spam would make me swell like a walrus. I was just found the spam bacon experiment interesting because I kinda didn't believe the surgeon when he said people puree spam and big macs. lol =D

I found one gets tired of over salty food very fast during the pureed stage of the diet. I looked for low sodium Soups and pureed them. Bean Soup was one of my favorites. I use to enjoy span as a child, but can no long handle it. To much fat and salt.

        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
