I'm 11 days out and I'm cleared for just about everything except beef/pork and raw vegetables. (My program skips the "full liquids" and "soft food" stages)

We're heading out to Chinese food right now... I haven't decided if I want green Beans and tofu, a chicken dish, some Soup, or maybe some ma po!

Depends on your plan. But a small amount of Kung Pao chicken or Hunan Chicken are my thing.

I found this bariatric friendly Chinese page online because I was a huge (quite literally) Chinese foodie. These recipes I found look good- I havent tried them yet!

Ended up having garlic long Beans with fried tofu, and some chicken curry with onions, carrots, and peppers.

I had Chinese food the other day with some girls from work. I got the half order of pineapple chicken, no rice, no noodles, while the others got the buffet. It was delicious, big chunks of chicken, pineapple, onion and peppers. I ate it again for lunch and supper the next day with what I brought home.

Assuming you are on regular foods, I get the green Beans with chicken kids meal at Panda Express with veggies as the side. I give the cookie to my husband.

At ELEVEN days out? Phew! Living life on the edge... I was still on full liquids. :D

I was advanced pretty quickly too but part of that is because I was not enjoying the pureed stage so I asked if I could just chew the supreme crap out of the next stage of food and was given the ok.

I wasn't "enjoying" it either, but enjoying got me to the point where I needed WLS, so... :P

My surgeon's practice skips full liquids and mushy foods unless regular food isn't tolerated. And so far, I have tolerated everything I've eaten. I just eat a lot less than I used to, and skip carbs.

      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
