TeeNah, I tried to make the spaghetti squash but as I started forking it... It turned to mush! Did I cook it too long?

I tried half a glass of wine for my birthday and I couldn't tell if I was "feeling it" but I suddenly felt hyper ???? I asked my doc, he said one night isn't bad and the risk of transfer addiction is very slim. I'm not a big drinker but I had a BYOB paint thing soo I had to ????

Yes, you over cooked it. I made it last night and I did too, it came out a bit mushy but I'm not sure if it's cause I cooked it too long or cause I let it cool down too long before I "forked" it. Did you end up eating it or tossing it ?

It was not edible. I just ate the sauce. It had lots of yummy veggies and meat. I really can't tolerate noodles. It hurts :( but noodles are part of why I got into trouble in the first place.

By the way, as tough as recovery was I have NO regrets. I'm down 48 lbs and tomorrow is our 3 month mark!! It's not as fast as some people but I am beyond thrilled. I'm almost half way!!!

Sorry :( but if you get a chance, try it again ! I swear it tastes almost like the real thing ! Congrats on your weight loss ! I hit 50 pounds a couple days ago. I got the shot as birth control and it's really messing with my weight loss, but the way I look at it, we wouldn't be this much lighter if we didn't do it ! I posted this on Facebook yesterday lol.

How much is everyone able to eat now? I had a followup yesterday and I didn't think I was eating enough. He said I am fine. I eat three meals a day and one Isopure. My meals are just a quarter of a cup. So I don't get much Protein from those. I don't tolerate meat very well. I'm close to being a vegetarian. Doctor says that's healthy for me.

It really depends on what I'm eating. If I'm eating Soup or something like yogurt, I'm probably closer to 1/2 cup. If I'm eating something of more substance, it's probably closer to 1/4 cup

      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.

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
