Besides the ricotta bake, I loved puréed meat loaf and mashed potatoes (some plans do not allow potatoes, be sure to check if you are)

Never puréed anything. Between shakes, refried Beans with my taco sauce, Soups, cottage cheese, small nibbles, I sure didn't want to eat baby food. Some people say they did eat baby food. Homemade chili was our staple since it was November and December.

I ate baby food twice during the purée stage, wouldn't recommend it. At all. Yuck.

I am/was planning on eating baby food during the pureed stage, because I am a HORRIBLE eater. I don't eat any veggies and BARELY ANY meat(chicken, turkey and a LITTLE beef) I just don't know if I can eat them pureed. I figured that since I need to leatn how to eat foods like a would, it would be good. I'm very excited about having my surgery, but I worry that such a bad eater as myself can't succeed.

I'm sorry, I hope I haven't put you off the idea of baby food then! It's perfectly edible, just a bit lacking in flavour.

I puréed everything. I got a mini chopper from Walmart. It was like $15-20 and a lifesaver.

Like Applesauce or baby food, you may need to add extra sauce or something to it so it's not so dry.

Ugh. Thank you. I think the thought of it makes it worse for me. I'm SURE it will be fine. Does food ALWAYS need to be juicy? Or just in the first couple of months? I like turkey lunchmeat, but I like the "dryer" brands, is that something I couldn't eat anymore? Or would I add turkry gravy to it?

      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.
