One word: Meatlube

:)

aka gravy and sauces. If you have issues getting meat to move quietly through your pouch, it can really help! ((hugs))

No, this is a life long problem. It goes down just fine... The rest 😥. I just can't digest red meat/game well since childhood. Lamb/goat is the gentler of the offenders 😥 lately I've been dealing with the fallout because who cares if I ****my pants anymore 😝

It was one of the main reasons I was a vegetarian for so long (plus I dont really love chicken)

Oh...and I hate gravy/sauces/dressings 😳 which is why y'all almost never see me talk about them unless it's a large recipe I'm making for more that just me.

Meatlube... Should be M*******

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Meal of the Moment: I love me some salad

Romaine lettuce + vinaigrette + 4oz grilled chicken + 2.5oz gala apple

161 cals - 19.2g protein - 11.0g NET carbs - 3.6g fat

Ate it all (and drank the remaining vinaigrette out of the container when no one was looking...shhhhh)

It's my go to vinaigrette (I make 1L batches of the stuff).

I think I've posted the recipe a couple times already on this thread, but here it is again anyway :)

1 tbsp = 6 cals, 0.2g Protein, 0.3g NET carbs, 0.6g fat

*NOTE 1: the label below for chicken broth mix reads "15g (1 tsp) chicken broth mix", but go by the 15g (which is actually 3 tsps)

*NOTE 2: often I squeeze some fresh lemon on top of the entire salad for more "freshness"

@ms.sss Thanks for sharing this. What's the "all purpose liquid soy seasoning"? Is it just soy sauce?

It’s a low/no-carb “soy sauce alternative”:

This sounds realllyyyyyy good I'm going to try it! Believe it or not, I've never tried chicken broth before. What kind do you use? Or are you referring to the chicken flavor powder?

Its the chicken broth powder. The original recipe called for a cup of actual low-sodium chicken broth, but I don’t always have it on hand so I use the powder (which i always have) and a cup of Water ;) .

I think here in the US it is "Liquid Aminos" by the same companies, I bought some when HEB was out of the gluten free soy sauce and used it in a stir fry.

        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.

      3. buildabetteranna

        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
