Interesting how things change after! I hope I despise chips! LOL

God, wouldn't that be great?

Sad to say that, so far, I haven't found a food I loved before surgery and hate now. At least, I haven't smelled a food I used to love before surgery and been revolted by it.

On the other hand, I've fallen in love with applesauce, so there's that.

I have one. Canadian Bacon. I loved Canadian bacon pre-surg and now, it smells weird to me....almost chemically...and tastes weird, too.

I literally threw out a package of it because I thought there might be something wrong. Bought a new package and had the same experience.

I had half an egg McMuffin the other day, and it was good...but it wasn't as wonderful as it used to be. Almost made me sad. But at 150 calories and 9g or protien (for half)...it's still a meal on the go that I don't mind indulging in once in a while. Big cup of decaff and I'm golden.

See? I'm really looking forward to this. I'm looking forward to falling in love with applesauce as @abefroman329 said. :D

I think the Egg McMuffin is a really healthy-er-ish alternative for those days when you need a quicky meal thru the drive thru...question...do you eat the whole thing with only 1 half of the muffin part? Or do you eat a "half of an egg mcmuffin"? Do you think you would have room to eat the whole egg, whole cheese slice, and whole canadian bacon or sausage with only half or 1/4 of the English muffin?

I thought about eating the Protein with just a little bit of muffin....and probably could do it that way. The cheese is welded to one of the muffin halves, so you'd probably want to pick that one and pitch the other. LOL

But no...I ate it as built.... cause my hubby...who insisted he wasn't hungry and didn't want anything....was staring at me like a Labrador Retriever.

He was all....eat what you want, and I'll eat the rest.

God...and he's doing this other weird thing, now, that he used to do with my daughter.

When she was little, he'd let her order anything she wanted off the menu, and would wait until she was done eating....and eat what was left...or just share with her. He's all...I'm not picky...go ahead...pick something good. Kid would pick bizarre things....pancakes to prime rib...he never cared.

The other day we were at a coffee shop, and I'm like...Man, I want to order this, but it's a ton of food and it won't travel well.

He's all...get what you want, I'll get a side salad and eat the rest when you're done.

In one way it's sort of endearing...in another way, it's sort of creepy. LOL. I love him, though. Selfless asshat. Wouldn't trade him.

Ha! Too cute! I'd say, keep on keepin' on! (Until he starts "taking the bite with you"...remember when you'd feed your kids and you would open and close your mouth in tandem with the spoon hitting their mouth? And I'd absolutely draw the line with him leaning over and cutting up your meat...*snic*)

Such a good hubby!

My husband made spaghetti at 2am two nights ago because he knows the torture I’m going through. The best part is that he is the worlds worst house keeper. He rinsed all the dishes and loaded them in the dishwasher. The only evidence was the half empty box of uncooked noodles sitting on the counter. God bless his soul!

I have to feel bad for my hubby tho. I do all the cooking and shopping. I sent him to the store for some SF Jello, and whatever he wanted to eat for the week. He emerged 1 hour later with a bag of...

I hope he survives this process and he doesn’t resent me afterward. Im just kidding! He will love me more for it [emoji173]️

        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!

    • buildabetteranna

      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
