I can't do alligator since banding...it's too chewy and I'd rather have the catfish, too. But I do like it.

We went to Red Lobster the other day to try the tilapia w/white chocolate (from the Next food Network Star on Food Network) it was YUMMY, YUMMY, YUMMY. Highly recommended.

My DD and I split one, though, since one serving is 14 points on WW. :wink_smile:

I love Pappadeux - the fondue is soooo yummy. I've tried the alligator there, and it's the same - kinda chewy.

I like the soft shell crab.

Is it lunchtime yet???

lunch? ? I am still waiting on my Breakfast to get here. Lazy sleep-in morning at my house today.

My hubby is on vacation this week and was up at 6:00 am! Crazy man!

Anyway, he just went to get breakfast for me and the kids and COFFEE!

I hate Mondays.:wink_smile:

:bored: he he...yeah, pretty much.

Although, I got so hungry, I needed a snack. So, rather than the m&ms...I grabbed some weight control oatmeal I had in the desk. I put more Water in it than I used to, and can never eat the whole thing, but it took the edge off.

whew! I hate being hungry, because when I do sit down to eat, I tend to scarf down my food...then get stuck...then can't eat...then still stay hungry...then just eat ice cream later.

:wink_smile: Better to avoid all that when I can!

I used to love gator tail. When cooked right, it is delicous. But I agree, it is definitely very chewy and not something I have even thought about attempting to eat since getting my band.

My wife's grandmother (My granny-in-law?) once told me that they used to trap and eat "blackbirds" (crow). Ewwwww!! 'Course, she is a bit addled, so I can't vouch for how true her statement was.

        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!

      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
