i can get greek yogurt at either Whole Foods or Walmart of all places. it's really hit or miss if my local grocery stores (albertsons/krogger) carry it.

My wally world just started carrying greek yogurt. I was so thrilled, (too funny that food still excites me, LOL). They had only plain and the other day I was there, I saw that they have the vanilla. I love to look on this thread to find different foods, and recipes for my meals.

Now all I need to do is find the granola that Luluc eats with it. :thumbup:

I am such a copycat, but it's a good thing.

When I first got banded, I took really simple things to work,just to get used to what I could tolerate and what I couldn't. I would make a batch of Soup (white chili, taco Soup, cioppino) anything that was maily broth based with a lot of Protein. I love to cook, so that was better for me rather than trying to find some pre-packaged stuff that I wouldn't like.

Try the tostito's spinach dip (2 tblspoons with a can of chicken) it is so good, I eat it with ww wasa crisps.

I'm glad you guys will be making "muffins" this weekend.. Luluc I will definetly be making potstickers.

I tried a new version of the "muffins", I call them chili cheese muffins(really good)

ground turkey, onion, garlic, all of your favorite chili spices, little Tomato paste, egg beater, cheese

bake until done. I topped them off will a little homemade chili, ff sour cream and green onions... yum-o:tt2:

      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.
