Just curious what people are missing. For me it's homemade chili with some saltines crushed up in it. Someone at work had some the other day and it smelled so good lol

You should be able to eat chili, just in a limited quantities. I make it all the time with ground chicken and a lot of different brand for Protein.

I miss shrimp parmigiana,

Dill pickles, green olives and jalepeno peppers - all together in a bowl. Big Papa pickles. Drinking pickle juice lol. Salt freak. Weird I know.

I don't eat a large amount but I have dill pickles, olives, and jalapeños all the time.

Unfortunately the smallest amount triggers major Fluid retention.

I lost 80lbs in 5 months and I pretty much eat anything in small amounts, but I do miss ice cream and alcoholic drinks, even a glass of wine will hit me fast. I know what I can eat and still lose and feel good: like 6 buffalo wings is it. I just picture that my stomach is the size of a banana and only eat that amount. It's been working for me.

I totally miss fried chicken. There is a Popeyes chicken two blocks from me. I smell the chicken all the time. All I think of is all the grease and it turns me off. I miss donuts and pancakes and a cold Pepsi. Although I had one waffle for Breakfast the other day light butter and very little lite surgery. It was good and I had no problems. Basically the thing is portion size. None of us is perfect. We will all eat food that we shouldn't occasionally and that's ok.

      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.
