Yesterday:

B: Nothing

S: 1/2 snack size hersheys chocolate bar w/ almonds, 3 ritz crackers w/ crab spread on them.

L: 1/2 grilled cheese w/ 1/3 c. vegetarian chili

S: 2 multigrain crackers w/ crab spread on them

D: 1/2 c. mushroom & wild rice Soup, 1/3 c. mashed potatoes & gravy

Dessert: kit kat bar (last one of those in house :thumbup:) - maybe if I had Breakfast I wouldn't have had this.

odd - I've been experiencing some chest pain (right of the sternum but high) I think it's associated w/ band b/c it's similar to where I feel something if I get stuck (but not exactly) it's transient (never more than 5-8 sec) and not associated w/ eating and I don't think it's due to being tight b/c I can certainly still eat plenty of food. My monthly dr's appt is today so I'll bring it up - just weird! :eek:

It's funny, I was just thinking about this! Egg drop soup is actually really easy to make. It's pretty much just chicken broth, Water, and eggs. As for the sodium content, I would suggest making it with Low Sodium chicken broth and you really should be fine. I'm on full liquids right now (6 days post-op) and I'm going to make some! :eek:

I ate some stirfry sesame chicken/veggies the other day and didn't have any trouble--just chewed a lot!

I ate a SANDWICH today! My first since being banded. I toasted the bread and ate half at one sitting and then half later. I've not had a fill yet...so I think I may have trouble then.

      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.
