Post surgery MENUS?



Recommended Posts

Is there a place on this forum that people post their daily menus? I know there are posts scattered here and there, but just curious if there's a specific place on here that people will post what they eat on the daily? Their Breakfast, lunch, dinner, Snacks?

I'm 3+ years out from VSG and haven't lost anything in over 2 years. I initally lost 100lbs but have gained back 30, and now I'm trying to get back on track and have lost 5 of those lbs. I stupidly went back to old habits and don't want it to get worse than it is. Just looking for ideas on what other people eat on a daily basis. Thanks!

I am still Post Op week 1 in my revision surgery so I wanted to show you some extra support. I think this is great!

I know my biggest challenge for me will also be getting in exercise :( I think I am allergic to it like I am shellfish :) I need to find the cure to that ASAP! Sending positive vibes and prayers for loads of menus.

I don’t know if there’s already one, but I’d be willing. To post my daily menus

I tried to get a daily menu thread going a while back, but it never really took off.

I'd participate if you ran it.

The bad thing is that if you create a new menu thread each day it will quickly fill up the right side bar of recent posts with "Daily Menu" threads and be very very annoying. So it's important to plan it out so it isn't intrusive to those who don't want to be part of the Daily Menu. You know?

Yeah, there are some of those on forums on different platforms, and they come and go in popularity.

Perhaps if we stick to a single thread that everyone updates daily, rather than a new thread each day, its volume would stick it into the "Trending Topics" section on the right and not monopolize the "Recent Topics" section, Just a thought.

OP here. Yeah, I'm thinking a single daily thread would be great. I think it would give everyone plenty of ideas too.

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

      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
