I think you did fine! I don't worry about fat, I worry about carbs.

My out on the run breakfasts?

Bacon egg and chees'e biscuit at Chick Filet. Ask them to make it in a bowl and they will leave off the biscuit. ;)

McD's sausage cheese' $1 McMuffin. Take off the top (or the bottom, whichever is bigger).

Sonic's Junior bacon, egg' and cheese' burrito, insides only.

Wawa's breakfast' bowls are customizable.

Ham and cheese' slices at any market's deli counter. Make your own roll ups in the car. (I do this at lunch', too. I add a few pepper or onion strips from the salad' bar for variety. Costs pennies.)

Beef Jerky' and a cheese' stick from a convenience store. (Most of them around these parts carry good quality protein' bars' and shakes' nowadays, too!)

Soma? Never heard of it?

( and I was doing VS for my husband. You know, men and the whole VS fantasy)

"VS" as in "variable speed" (drill) -nothing dirty intended.

You know how us guys love our power tools. You should see this little beauty of a variable speed drill I have, light weight, dual speeds (0-450RPM, 0-1500RPM), 20V lithium-ion battery, etc., oh yeah!

(I know you meant Victoria's Secret" :))

VS sucks all the way around. Back in the day when I still fit in their crud, my sister went to buy me something for a birthday or whatnot. She was large, and the lady looked her up and down and told her in a very snooty voice that they didn't have anything that would fit *her*.

I get my best fit (for now anyway) with LB. But I have friends who are very hard to fit (small ribcage, huge breasts) and they swear by Soma. Pricey, to say the least, but there's nothing like a bra that really fits. They say the Soma stuff lasts a really long time if you take care of it, too.

As for food stuff, I just got released to full diet yesterday, so I haven't had much of the "caught out, must eat something" but I don't think that's too bad. When I got released to purees I was craving refried Beans, and the texmex fast food place we use doesn't have them alone anymore. So I got a bean burrito and ate the insides with a fork. I think there are acceptable fast food options if we just stop and think it through. :)

Damn. Not me. Once considered dating a guy who worked on an oil rig. Now THATS some drilling.

I prefer Soma anyway. I've always had good service at the one here, and to me the quality of the undergarments is far superior to VS. highly recommend.

Just came from Soma. My girls are VERY VERY HAPPY. Thanks for the suggestion!

This thread is filled with awesome-ness.

And to think it all began by Miss Mergs feeling guilty as she ate smallish sausage.

Now....she's been coached by all to embrace the sausage and do so with vigor.

Remind me to never mention any of the words "variable speed", "drill" or "batteries" in a post again; or at least not without including the words "cold shower". :)

Omg. Would rather embrace the sausage than the stall...

Bahahah. I crack myself up sometimes!

Don't forget "silver bullet"

Oh wait. That was a different thread.

Apologies.

        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.

      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
