Cheater cheater, pumpkin pie eater



Recommended Posts

Actually it wasnt pumpkin pie (but i WISH I had some pumpkin pie!). Yesterday, day 2 of pre op diet, i broke down and ate 2 slices off kraft cheese. It was wonderful and I dont really feel guilty about it lol. I know I shouldn't be flippant about it but i have 21 days of this to endure!

Super hard to stick with it but def do the best you can. We have all been there. The most important thing I believe is to make sure the last week you don't break down and slip back into solids before surgery. You want to be as healthy as possible def helps with recovery! Good Luck!

When it's time for my surgery, I too need to do three weeks, I'm not gonna judge, I too will most likely slip up, all you can do is pick it back up the second after you slip and resolve to do better. Slip ups are always going to happen - we are only human

Yeah and this is difficult though it feels like it has got a little easier. Emphasis on a little.

I just posted that I had a few little slip ups (small piece of cheese and a small crumb of bread). You have a much more supportive audience than I did! We can do this. No judgment from me!

Hang in there! You can do this! Mine thankfully was only a week so not so bad. If you find that you are having a hard time handling it, you might want to reach out to your nutritionist to request the addition of some lean Protein.

I was not required to do a three week diet, only a two week one. I choose to start early so I could get into the hang of it. I have slipped up a couple times. Nothing crazy, just not on my plan. I do think it is important to follow what our Drs have given us to follow, but as mentioned before, we are human. mistakes will happen! Forgive and move on, try to do better. I will say I have lost about 12 pounds over the last couple weeks ???? since I am seeing the scale move it does make me more motivated!! Good luck!!!

      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.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
