So I am almost 8 weeks post op and have been doing great! I’ve lost 36 pounds and I exercise at least 6 days a week and eat mostly Protein and try to eat less than 30 carbs a day. But today has been rough. All I want is Cereal. Like fruity pebbles cereal. And I’ve been hungry today like no other!!!!! And because of all this I feel big and like I’m sabotaging my hard work! I would even eat the fruity pebbles in almond milk if it would help!
I guess I am just looking for reassurance from my sleeve family that I’m just have one of those days and it too shall pass 😔

I heard a rumor that GNC has a Protein Powder that tastes like Fruity Peebles, either one of the Ghost brand blends or another proprietary brand,it was even a sample size! I saw it when I was there last chatting with the rep at the counter.

My point is find a way to make this work and don't eat that evil @$$ cereal.

Hope this helps!

Oh Chugging🚝 right along. Tomorrow I start my prediet for,my September 5th RnY, we will find out if the statement " What does not kill me can only strengthen me: holds any credence. But I do want a smooth surgery that helps Ser me on my way toward a better life. It has to be an improvement from sitting obese and in pain , waiting daily for the Death Angel to claim me as his Own. That is a SAD way to have to exist and now I have hope that no longer will be my fate. So some tears💦so n e sorrow but there will be 🌞Sunlight ahead!

I had a day like that on Saturday. There were just a lot of personal issues that were happening, and I wanted food! I did eat more carbs than normal on that day. I was with my sister and her family, and we ordered Mexican. I got chicken with rice and queso. I ate mostly chicken and just a bite or two of rice, but then I came back and ate more later and ate the rest of my chicken with more rice. I also had a couple pieces of chocolate. But, hey, I tracked every bite, and I still lost 4 pounds this week. You're not always going to be perfect, and yes, it will pass!

      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.
