Breakfast Taco (leftover chicken/feta from a Greek salad = meal 4 of the salad that never ends...Gah! I hate leftovers so bad. Although this taco was yum!) And I'm a major fan of the jicama "tortilla".

Me too!

Don't say HEB because that is geographically inconvenient! :P

They are great with anything Mexican or Asian inspired!!

I get them at my HEB in the produce section next to the veggie spirals and shredded cabbage at the front of the store! :)

dinner tonight. Balsamic rosemary chicken topped with aged parmigiana with roasted Brussels sprouts on the side. Also, it’s on a small plate for size reference.

I think my pouch may be a little on the bigger side so I try to fill it with lean Protein and veggies. I also make sure to chew really well, because chicken can be tough to digest for me.

Me too! I used to put so much effort into them and now I’m just like, olive oil, salt, black pepper, and minced garlic (I put garlic on everything I think)... and BOOM magic happens.

We had chicken again because I found another recipe I wanted to try! Lol

Tonight was bnls/sknls chicken thighs with bacon & Colby cheese, mashed cauliflower, and green Beans again for me. Hubs & kids had real potatoes & corn as their sides. I thoroughly enjoyed my meal. I had about 1/4 a thigh and stopped when I felt restriction. 20190111_180950.jpeg 20190111_181823.jpeg

They have a lovely crunchy delicacy and a slightly sweet under-ripe Asian pear taste and texture. Not overtly sweet, just very filled with liquid like watermelon.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        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
