Now I want to try a Premier bar and a Quest bar to see what they're like.

For me it is nuts! I love them, they are decent Protein but i find myself eating them more than I should. My favorite right now are unshelled pistachios.

Anything sweet. chocolate, Cookies, fudge, brownies, ice cream, sigh............ my kryptonite, especially if it has nuts I it.

I'm with you--especially at work. You have to go by the coffee and Snacks to get to the bathroom in our workroom!! Some days it's just fine, but even though I tell myself that I already know what they taste like, they still get me!!

I wish I could quit.....cheese. I put eat string cheese once a day but I also use laughing cow once a day and if I can justify it I put a cheese slice on my chicken at dinner. "protein" I tell myself.....even though I could easily skip it and still meet my Protein goal. I'm determined to get it down to one serving a day, period!

I also wish I could quit coffee creamer.....no I don't....yes I do.....no I don't! Ugh!! I feel deprived if I don't have my chocolate carmel coffee creamer in the morning! Since I absolutely positively refuse to deprive myself of anything ever again I will probably have it every morning in my coffee until I go to my grave!

Why cheese?

I wish I could quit grazing. I'm never hungry, but have developed the habit of noshing frequently during the day on whatever is available.... pretzels, crackers, leftover lunch items, etc. I've been in another stall, and I know that this is the reason why.

I absolutely have to take myself physically away from the food--and start thinking of something else. And I'm not always successful at doing that--I fight it every day--especially when I'm at work. I don't know if it's avoidance of doing something I don't want to do--or I just like to have something in my mouth. Sometimes gum will help.

It's really hard not to have coffee this weekend since I'm snowbound here in Chicago today. But I'm drinking Water.

For the people who said Quest bars--does this mean that we shouldn't be eating them? WHy not? I don't have them very often but I thought they were ok to have. Sigh. I need a really good list of what we can and can't have!! not just Protein and carbs but actually items. My head really has a hard time processing what is a carb, what isn't, what is ok, what to stay away from unless they are extremely obvious. Chicken=yes; ice cream=no.

@@esskay77, Quest bars are only bad if you abuse them like I do. I let them take the place of a non-processed natural Breakfast or snack pretty much every day. They haven't interfered with my weight loss, but I believe my digestive issues might be improved if I was eating more "cleanly." That being said, I'm still planning to have another one for breakfast this morning. They're really my favorite breakfast.

Peanut butter! Yeah, yeah, I know - there's the stuff you grind yourself, there's PB2, there's Peanut Butter flavored Protein - I've tried those and even use them sometimes.

But they're just not Jif.

That's what my mother fed me, and I will always, always love it!

@@IcanMakeit If you were to have a "clean" breakfast, what would it be? I have gotten hooked on Kashi Trail Mix bars for breakfast and know I should have something else but mmmmm.

      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.
