What is on your menu for Thanksgiving Holiday Meal? Be honest.

Me? I will keep my plate to saucer size and have samples.

I'm going to stick to my plan. Protein first, so maybe a couple ounces of moist turkey, and then vegetables. If room, maybe a tablespoon of mashed potatoes. My pouch is too restrictive to indulge in a bunch of crap, so I'll just stay the course and enjoy the people and conversation at the table rather than the heaping plate in front of me.

Ground Turkey (first), Dressing, Mashed Potatoes (my mom makes the best), cauliflower mac & cheese, a bite of real baked mac & cheese, and a tablespoon of cranberry sauce (the can shaped kind) --- all sample portions of course. I've already logged the food into MyFitnessPal and I'm staying under the limits set for me by my NUT. It's just my parents and I for this T-giving, so they're up for the modifications. For Breakfast though, I'm having some minced ham and soft-scrambled eggs. I'm so happy my stomach is taking to well minced/pureed/soft foods. :)

Breakfast i think I'll have a caramel Protein Shake. For the main dinner I'm going all out.....Cream of mushroom Soup. Then later when I let all that settle I may splurge and have a sugar free vanilla pudding with nutmeg spice! Getting crazy up in my house!! Happy Turkery day to those who are NOT on full liquids [emoji849]

      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.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
