Hi fellow bandsters I am recently banded and I just wanted to say that this is the most helpful thread on LBT. It not only gives me a good idea of what to eat but also shows me that we all slip up every now and again, you just have to be accountable for it

I am 12 days out from surgery and still on mushies (although I have cheated a bit, and tolerated it fine). Here is what I had today:

Breakfast: Cookies n' cream Protein Shake (it tasted nothing like cookies n cream ice cream~sheesh false advertising..haha)

Lunch: 1/4 cup fat free refried Beans with 1 tsp fat free sour cream and 1 tsp salsa

Dinner: 1/4 cup vegatarian fat free chili with 1 tsp fat free sour cream

Two days till my surgery and I'm on Optifast, but am allowed veggies and one fruit each day.

Schwan's sells frozen chunked up sweet potatoes so I coated one cup full with lemon pepper, garlic salt, chili powder, cayenne pepper, cinnamon, and nutmeg. I then roasted them on a tinfoil lined baking sheet for 20 minutes.

Totally yummy!!

Thanks for the welcome! I love this thread. Too many bites for me to write down what I ate for the last two days...but know that I ate way less than what I would usually eat.

Today:

B - Pure Protein shake

L - 2 small bites of toasted bagel & 1/4 cup tortilla Soup

S - 2/3 nonfat yogurt approx. 100 calories

D - Went to souplantion (also known as Fresh Choice) Couple bites of potato salad, beets, chicken broth, 3 bites of cream of chicken Soup, 2 bites of frozen yogurt, some croutons w/ff ranch. Pretty good for a buffet!

wow! I was banded 4/7/08. I have had two fills. My last one was the end of July. I cannot eat any beef at all. It won't stay down. I can't seem to eat pork or bacon either. chicken and fish is my mainstay. If I can keep food down for 3 or 4 days, then I can't keep anything but Protein Shakes or Soup down for the next 3 days. I have lost 51 lbs. I work out with a personal trainer 2 x's a week and on my own 3 including cardio. I am amazed how so many others can eat most foods. Can't eat pizza, Pasta or rice either. Am I doing something wrong?

      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.
