No Hate Just A Bit Help



Recommended Posts

With the kindest words possible. First of all it's mush not fried fatty foods diet. You need to ask yourself why you had this surgery. Did you see a nutritionist before surgery? To teach you healthy eating. Maybe a vegetable Soup or fish meal that is mushy usually. You want something very soft and mushy chips of fried. You want baked fish not fried fish! And lasagne has a lot of carbs you wanna stay away from the starchy foods. Make healthy choices. This is a new start. This is just a tool it's up to you on how you make it work though best of wishes and have a great time with smart choices !!

I agree with the Soup suggestion. Baked fish would be good. Crab cakes are usually pretty mushy, if you like them. Mashed potatoes, if necessary. Sweet potatoes would be better, if they have them. Remember small portions! So, you won't need a whole meal, unless you want to take some home. Good luck! It's pretty early to be doing an outing, but I understand not wanting to miss anything.

You could eat the ricotta and sauce from between the lasagna noodles!

I was told by the dietician I could have anything that I could mash down with a fork. I haven't ate anything proper for 4 weeks and I was going out for meal otherwise I would've has a shake or something. I don't intend eating fatty or convenience foods all the time but I was out for my husbands birthday. Anyways I had lasagne, well I picked at it. Ate very little. Really struggling at this stage not a fan of mush. Just wanted a little help but wish I never asked. Dietician ringing me tomorrow so I can ask her any questions I have.

good that your dietician is accessible on short notice. I went out with my husband while on purees, I find there is usually something. Luckily the had an amuse bouche with hummus, so I was able to have that and then I ordered french onion Soup, but avoided the bread and cheese and just ate the soup. Sounds like the lasagne worked for you. when I was on mushy foods I did make my own mini lasagnas at home with sauce, cottage cheese with a little mozza and a little parmesan mixed in and a little ground beef (no noodles) (baked them in the oven. going forward I'll be making mine with zucchini instead of noodles. still delish.

        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!

      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
