I am proud of me (sausage sandwich)



Recommended Posts

yesterday I went to see friends aunty and they was having tea soon after i got there. my friends uncle made me a SAUSAGE SANDWICH on white bread and proper butter. put it in front of me and said here u are girl enjoy!! O M G i paniced as loved sausage sandwich. told them didnt want it as was eating later with hubby when i got home. it took me five times of telling them NO AND THEY FINALLY MOVED IT PHEW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:lol:

because if they are eating when im there they allways do me some food will have to avoid meal times i guess..

think i would have been ill if they didnt take no for a answer they dont no i been banded its only 2 weeks since op aswell.

1 more thing they have known me for 19 years and have allways called me big Ann. I keep saying what u gonna call me when im slim? as been slimming since nov 07 again but this time its staying offfff!:thumbup: sorry its long

Ann xx

Well done on resisting!!! I think that is one i am going to find hard, especially going round to other family members house's, they always offer food. Sometimes in the past when i have refused food, people seem to think that there is something a matter with me!....how stupid lol lol I dont eat 24-7! lol lol

So well done. The hardest part is when you are with people who dont know that you have been banded. I have only told one other person other than my daughter and I wish i hadnt done that.

Persevere and it is amazing how people dont notice how little you are eating. Especially because you are eating much more slowly. Problem I am having at the moment is BBq's. If someone gives me a hamburger, I can only eat half, so I eat it very slowly and then casually ditch the the second half. Noone ever notices!!!

It is fab! Keep with it, you will succeed, but my advice is, dont tell anyone.

wtg Ann - you go girl !!!!

I'm planning to just tell my family & friends - they've all been part of my discussion & consideration process anyway & most are very supportive. No-one's actually been negative although a couple are worried about me going under for the general anaestetic. My parents & sis are 100% supportive though & they are the most important to me :sad:

      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.
