PigsRFlying,

I did that for my Clear Liquids diet. I just dissolved some Protein Powder in it and watered it down a but and drank it with a glass of Water. It's a good idea b/c of how many flavors they have. I do it now, too, with a little milk or some cream of wheat tossed in instead of noodles.

Gives some Iron, and Calcium and Protein if you make it my way and it's better than broth all the time.

I went out with a friend today. We went to Panera. 1st time in a restaurant since my surgery (Aug. 8th). She had a salad & I asked them if they would put some veg. Soup in the blender for me. She did. It wasn't bad. But boy are my choppers ready to be used.But hey, at least I made it thru my 1st time in a restaurant good. I was actually proud of myself, because I really wanted some kind of sandwich, with really good thick, bread.< /p>

Hi everyone. I was banded a week ago today. It's been an interesting journey.

BTW, Does anyone know how I can get my ticker into my profile somewhere so that when I post my ticker will show up? Thanks

I have no idea how to do tickers. I'd be interested in the info. as well. & also do you have to retype all the info. under each message as to date you were banded, your doc. where your from & all that goood stuff or is there a way to get that to automatically come on your pages as well.

hey. ive figured it out. if you go to the ticker site that everyone is making them in, you create your ticker and then use the BBcode and put it in your signature under UserCP. Also, the information that you want to put in regarding your loss and fills and such, if you keep that in your signature, it will appear on all your posts and you just update your signature when you have new information.

Also to update it, just go to one of your posts, and click on the ticker. It'll take you to you ticker profile at tickerfactory and you can just put in the new values and it'll give you what you need.

Oh! The BEST THING EVER!!!

Campbels Healthy Request

Mexican Style chicken Tortilla Soup (98% Fat Free)

In a blender, Mircowave for 1min 33 secs, and put a spoonful of

Low Fat Sour Cream in the middle. It is the tastiest thing I've had in weeks.

Healthy Choice makes one too that's REALLY good! (20 grams of Protein too) After blending I had to add a little broth to thin it. Good idea with the sour cream!

I've learned from the last 2 weeks that if I sip my pureed Soup instead of drinking it that I get filled up sooner. Hope this helps someone.

I meant sip from a spoon instead of drinking.

      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.
