I bought lots of 10 calorie jellies (or do you call them Jello? ) to eat during the immediate post op phase, but I've got loads left over, because I'm finding them unbearably sweet. I didn't initially believe what was said about tastes changing post op, but that has actually been my experience. I'm even finding grapes a little too sweet.

I take a flavoured Protein Shake to work for lunch, but that's just for convenience and to get enough Protein down my neck. I don't really enjoy the flavour. The rest of the time I eat proper food. I can even manage a tiny portion of steak now! 😃

What a great idea. I too donated my stuff to my cousin who just had surgery. I was happy to see it all go.

My aunt is now wanting to get the surgery done. Using my surgeon too :D! Told her I would give it all to her. Great products just didn't work for me.

I'd certainly try that - if I knew what cool whip was! 😉

Not too much of a loss, it is made of hydrogenated coconut oil and gives me GERD,every time. Give me natural whipped cream, well perhaps not, I need nothing to raise my weight.

      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.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
