Veggie burger. I air fried the veggie burger with garlic infused olive oil, and then after it was cooked, I put the sourdough with it till it was toasted. 138g in weight total. I would usually finish it but stopped early. I guess I shouldn't haven eaten a couple of slices of green apple a half hour earlier. 20221017_180440.jpg 20221017_181034.jpg Screenshot_20221017_182155.jpg

lunch was this huge salad- romaine, cucumber, tomatoes, danmuji, rotisserie chicken, smoked turkey sausage, croutons, and blueberries with a splash of balsamic vinegar.

And because I knew I wouldn’t be in the mood for dinner at dinner time I made my kids American goulash with smoked beef sausage instead of ground beef.

I, instead, had a glass of horchata with chocolate iced coffee Protein Powder mixed in.

And I’m not even sorry about it! 😂

I’ve always been taught that food is a gateway to cultures. Exploring different spice palates, recipes, and methods gives me such a bigger appreciation for those who eat those meals regularly.

The past few days have been a huge blur. I wish I’d taken more photos but I made the dessert bar goodies for a coworker’s wedding yesterday. You’ll just have to settle for these chocolate dipped pretzels and these pumpkin roll stacks.

When I dropped off the leftovers at work (per the bride’s request) one of the nurses asked me if I was a professional baker. 😂

      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
