I finally have a before/after. :) Sometimes I can't "edit" myself cuz something looks so good. I usually only put what I know will be eaten on my plate and weigh everything. That way I have a clean/healthy plate without leftovers. But I served 3.5oz of salmon + 3.5oz broccoli + 1oz ea avocado and Tomato. (Ended up finishing the avo, cuz I didn't want to throw it out or waste it.)

Ended up eating 3oz salmon, 2oz broccoli, 1oz avo, 1/2oz tom--pretty much what I always eat (by weight). LOL. There is comfort in predictability. I'm a little over 8 months out.

True, I keep dancing around the air fryer purchase... I may take the plunge

I love our air fryer.... I really now want the air fryer oven.... it's the high tech air fryer and so much more... I could get rid of 3 appliances in place of it... but I've been told no more appliances until at least 2 die. LOL

Yes, but what kind?

Ours is a Power XL - The infomercial on TV... LOL.. but I bought on eBay for the normal 1/2 price. I'd definitely recommend investing in the largest basket, it just makes things so much easier.

And for the office... I purchased this one...

it was an Amazon daily deal for under $70 - couldn't beat it. Our office mates love it.

I have the basket type like this. I got it on BF, for like $40. It's fine for one person, maybe 2, if one has a tiny tummy like us. I think there are diminishing rewards with the bigger basket. It get deeper, but not really much wider. So it's not very useful space, IMO.

This is what I really want! Which is overkill since I'm single and live alone :lol:

      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.
