can we refrain from blatant advertising do you think?

What's on my menu for today?

Um, I had oatmeal with sultanas and cinnamon for Breakfast

Just had a corned beef and pickle sandwich and a yogurt for lunch

chicken chow mein for dinner tonight.

I will NOT eat between meals today! I've been shocking lately. Probably because if I can eat a sandwich and a yogurt all within an hour I probably need some fill. Not sure.

Enough advertising already. There are hundreds of Protein products on the market.

First off, though, have you been banded, or are you pre-band? What type of liquid diet are you on? We need a bit more information about what your needs are before giving advice...

Oh, sorry, you were asking about liquids, stupid me. Here I am just tempting you with things, lol.

When I was on liquids, I blended up real food. I didnt live on Protein shakes (although I had them then as I wasnt eating a lot of anything). but I made really good hearty Soups full of Pasta, meat, lentils and veg and I blended those up, I'd blend yogurt and fruit together with some bran in it too for a smoothie with some fibre, and for some carbs for energy. I even blended up my Christmas dinner with extra chicken stock!

I found liquids really easy and honestly, I lost tons of weight in that time, eating well didnt stop me losing.

I take my coffee in the morning mix it with a vanilla Protein drink and add lots of sugar free french vanilla coffee mate.

I use same Protein and add some canned peaches and peach yogurt and creamer.

I'm wanting something warm so I will puree some Soup and add some plain protein mix to that. I'll let you know how it works.

Careful with the coffee mate! It gives me the trots if I have more than a couple of servings in a day. sugar free or regular versions both do this to me. ;)

      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.
