Tell your misinformed family to read the blogs of bariatric surgeons Matthew Weiner and Garth Davis. Have them read the extensive nutritional information provided free by PCRM.Org, Drmcdougall.com, Colin Campbell foundation, nutritionfacts.org, jeffnovick.com, and dozens of other scientifically valid websites that aren't subsidized by the meat and dairy industries. Get them to watch the movie Forks Over Knives.

If they won't do this, then they don't want to know the truth; there is no healthier way of eating than eating plant-based without added oils (natural fats in nuts and olives are actually good).

Your food looks amazing (assuming it's a meal, not the whole day)! Your child(ren) will be healthy and will likely never suffer from the obesity and related health problems that led you to having weight loss surgery!

Memorize this phrase, "I'll give that all the consideration it deserves."

Repeat as necessary.

It's pho I don't really have a recipe I just kind of throw things in there that sound appealing. I got addicted to it a few years back after I had my surgery and I couldn't really eat so I was just drinking the broth. Trader Joe's has an amazing ginger miso broth that I used

You should cut & paste all of that into a special holiday card to send to them.

Gotta love unsolicited advice and opinions.......your analogy for them is spot on.

Sriracha sauce is the ticket, too. Love that stuff.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

    • buildabetteranna

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
