Food Before and After Photos

I second @GreenTealael's Russel Stover Sugar Free Chocolates (I loooooove the coconut one).

...and @Sheribear68, I call your 2 glasses of red wine and raise you at least half a bottle and a couple shots.

...and a 10-course tasting menu (which btw, is my favourite special occasion meal format of choice. Lots of variety AND little amounts of volume of food at the same time :) )

...and I'm am totally wearing something slutty. Tastefully slutty.

Any low calorie red wine suggestions?


I go with cab sav because I like it AND it’s typically lowest sugar.

^^ Same.

If you really want to go lowest carb/sugar go for champagne (the real, dry stuff).

Speaking of honey.. made honey bbq and buffalo wings last night in the ninja foodi. I don’t think I can eat wings anywhere else again. I’m obsessed with this foodi ❤️

I heart chicken wings.

Though I can't seem to make them at home very well. I can't get the breading right...

Yours look YUM though...(blue cheese or ranch dip?)

I don't bread. I just dry them really well. Sometimes I put them on a rack in the fridge and let them air dry for a day. Then season and air fry. So dang good!

Thanks! I love wings too! My favorite way to eat them is on the grill, but cooking them with coal not gas. Once cooked I top them with jalapeños 😍😍😍😍

For the ones last night I didn’t do any breading. I pressure cooked them, dried them with a paper towel, then air fried.

I made wings for lunch today a little differently. With these I seasoned them, added a good amount of mustard (yellow and Dijon), then I lightly coated them with flour and air fried. Instead of brushing with oil I used a zero calorie olive oil spray.

Here’s the before and after. Oh and blue cheese always. I don’t like ranch ... at all lol. I ended up serving some blue cheese with today’s wings but realized them didn’t need it.

Toss your wings in baking powder before you bake them. Bake them at 350 for 20 minutes then up the temp to 400 for the last 20 minutes. They will turn out crispy and ready to be tossed in your favorite sauce.

Good idea on the chocolate covered fruit!

Wanted to take the candy along on a weekend getaway, so would love some ideas that wouldn't need refrigeration.

This seems fairly easy and stable

lunch today: Steak “stew” is the best way I can describe It. I call it lomo. It has onions, tomatoes, and jalapeños. Zero oil :)

You can’t really tell the difference between the before and after. I took a few bites and ended up getting full fast.

If you try it, have it sliced very thin and by preference I always cook and eat it hot

        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
