I've started including these little peppers in my lunch. Big crunch and low calorie. I had about six of these with my cheese sticks. Yum!

What's your new favorite thing?

I like using those little peppers as my new stuffed peppers. I take ground turkey and cook it with marinara then stuff it into the peppers like you would a normal size bell pepper. I put a half a strip of cheddar cheese over the top, bake it, and voila- sleeve stomach sized stuffed peppers!

My favorite thing since WLS is Brussel sprouts, I can't get enough of them. I buy 1lb frozen bags, put them in my microwave steamer for 12 minutes. Top with a 1tblsp of butter and salt. BOOM! BABY! Or if you're an Emerald fan - BAM!!! :-P

I always liked hummus but now it's a staple of my diet. Three ounces along with a 100 calorie wrap and I'm good for lunch or even Breakfast. Quick and easy.

Amazingly, tofu (with some flavoring as it has none ). chicken broth... Baked with any type seasoning..

In chili...anywhere I can add it for low calories and high Protein.< /p>

My biggest surprise lately is my body not liking premier shakes... Kinda a go to staple...,

I'll listen to this wonderful but fickle band.

I absolutely would not be where I am 8+ years out ....maintaining ....without it????

Just discovered Mio Orange vanilla Water drops. This tastes exactly like a Dreamsicle. I'm pretending it's just melted ice cream.

Frozen organic fruit/berries, unsweetened almond milk, plain greek yogurt, a little sweetener. Blended in my Magic Bullet. Delicious! :)

      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. 🤞
