Stage 1 diet ( post op) :

Doing the thing like I'm supposed to... Still absolutely no hunger. Even while cooking for others. Haven't even bothered with Jello cups or popsicles yet. Still just fluids.

@GreenTealael has the GERD disappeared?

So far yes, no one can hear my stomach churning & I don't feel it either, but I am also not eating. I will wait a few months to give my final views on it to be certain.

My new fave summer treat: (relatively) low-cal/low-sugar Chocolate-Peanut Butter "frozen dessert". I like it because its not sweet...more a dark chocolate flavour vs a milk chocolate, and the Peanut Butter to chocolate ratio is not too much, just enough to taste.

100 cals per 1/2 cup; 6g protein; 8g NET carbs; 3.5g fat.

I had this after dinner, and as I was pretty low on calories still, I added 1/4 cup of whipped cream (not shown).

How do you like the Strawberries and Cream? My fave is still Bananas and Cream (especially in coffee and smoothies). But I've wanted to try the strawberry but been afraid! :D

Reviews please. And how much are you able to get down at a sitting?

SF Popsicles are pretty heavenly tho...could easily pass on the sf Jello and sf pudding tho.

I don't like any of the flavors straight except Cookies and cream ( but i never drink it straight anyway 😞)

No clue how much I'm able to get down in a sitting because im simply always drinking to meet my quota. Im not measuring just completing items. So far I've tried waters, popsicles once, bai, broth twice, PP shakes and teas. Nothing else.

Also I'm even colder than before patiently waiting for this heat wave 😂

My fancy new spiralizer came in, and zoodles were accomplished. This thing is SO MUCH better than the crappy handheld one that it replaced. I should have bought it to begin with, it was all of $25. I was being silly. So now, I present to you: Zoodle Perfection with Morningstar Farms Griller Bits, and Black olives. Topped with a lovely Alfredo sauce. So fancy!

        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.

      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
