Freaking apple!



Recommended Posts

To all apples: UP YOURS!

I am having a bit of a low blood sugar episode, 72, so not too horrible, but I do have the shakes, so.........trying to make better food choices, instead of eating candy or drinking sugary fruit juice, I decided to have an apple. Or at least part of an apple. I get a few bites into it, and now I'm stuck as hell.

To top it off, my sugar still hasn't come back up yet, and I can't eat or drink anything yet. :frown:

Awwww, I'm sorry you are having apple issues! That is one food that I honestly can say I have to stay away from! It happens to me everytime even if I peel off the skin.

I'm glad I have no diabetes issues, the hubby does and it sucks! Can't you take one of those chewable tablet things they sell at the drug stores? They probably taste like shit but will at least go down.

Good luck!!!

Yeah, I COULD, but that's totally empty calories, and honestly, as long as I HAVE to have something, it might as well multi-task for me. I have eaten several apples even with the skin before, and I've not had that problem until this time. I think in my haste to bring up my sugar level, I didn't chew well enough.

Thank goodness that's over! Maybe next time I'll stick with yogurt or something.

Ooooo, I don't like apples, either. Ate too many of them as a kid. I do like Yellow Delicious, but no other ones than that.

Oh, Apple-as in Mac? I love them, or I used to, but we are currently a Mac-free house.:)

So you aren't stuck anymore? It's horrible when something is stuck and stays stuck for a long time.

Thank heavens, no, I'm not stuck anymore. The longest I've ever had anything stuck was about 15 minutes. And those were 15 minutes of hell, I can't imagine having that go on for hours, or even longer...

Silly girl, it's not all about YOU, it's always all about ME! LOL!

Happy to hear the frickin apples is now unstuck. Have a friend who had bypass surgery about six years ago. Got an apple stuck a few weeks ago. Ended up in the emergency room and dr. had to retrieve it. Not a happy day for her.

Off subject....she has now gained over half of her weight back. She is just beside herself after going through everything that she did. She's at the point where she is very sorry she had it done.

      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
