Just want to take a bite of solid food



Recommended Posts

Please use your common sense.

Eating sticky candy two weeks out, before beeing cleared for pureed and soft foods is an invite for complications. Even at the pureed and soft food stage, candy is not allowed.

With that mindset you could eat chocolate for your liquid stage, since it melts in your mouth. But is it in accordance with your plan? I bet not.

Your nut most likely wants you to eat a healthy, hi Protein and low carb diet. It never includes sweets!! Candy is hi carb and empty calories and can get stuck in your staples. Ask your surgeon or nut for their opinion if you don't believe me or the other people trying to help you.

And this is a public forum where the vets are very helpful. You might want to listen to the people who succeeded already. They did it right.

I wish you luck and hope you don't end up with the people who didn't take advantage of their wls and didn't lose weight or gained it back, at the bad end of the percentage spectrum.

You have to work for it.

I agree! I only want it when I smell it! But I'm way to full feeling all the time

I was instructed to use Flinsto nd Vitamins?


flinstone vitamins tend to be chewables.

I passed on them because most of the mv's I found contained Calcium carbonate.

So I went with Jamieson chewable mv's w/o calcium and take calcium separately.

Having no luck finding calcium citrate chewables anywhere. Found liquid calcium carbonate in liquid form but far more expensive than its worth and tastes like barium Fluid.

      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.
