It's a diet similar to one given post surgery. It's designed to get you back in touch with feeling band restriction. Days 1 & 2 are liquids only (broth, gello, Protein Drinks, soup). Day 3 is like mushies , soft food (eggs, etc). Day 4, Proteins that are a little firmer (canned fish, etc). Day 5 for firm proteins (chicken breast). It also tells you to avoid the pitfalls of eating around the band, like eating "sliders", things that go down too easy. Like proteins swimming in sauce

I did one day of liquids and it got me back on track. I am feeling my restriction again. I thought I needed another fill, but I don't, I need to stay away from "sliders" and get back to eating things that fill me up quickly.:tongue_smilie:

      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.
