STUPID MOVE ON MY PART

Actually I don't think it was stupid at all. You went into it thinking you were eating a high Protein food. If it is something you have made a hundred times in the past it may just not have occurred to you that you could dump from it. Now you know and experience is the best teacher.

Now imagine if that was ice cream? I bet you'll weigh the enjoyment of the eating versus the anguish of dumping before trying any really unhealthy foods!

Before surgery there was a running joke in our house. "You don't own the Colonel, you only rent it". KFC frequently sent us running to the toilet. Fried foods are often difficult.... No worries!

Just to cover the bases though, be sure to examine the other ingredients to see if there was anything else in the cakes that you hadn't had before. The fish was fresh out of a can, right?

The salmon was fresh out of the can, yes. Expiration date was in 2019. Only other things in the mix was cornbread mix, diced onions, and low fat mayo.< br>

      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.
