Recommended Posts

thanks latrice and dolly. i guess i just need someone to make me stop and think about what I am doing. I am doing this for a reason also and need to get my self together. I fully intend to stick with the pre-op diet for sure now. After all, I still have 8 more days and I know I can do this! thanks jenhay

Here in Australia (well in my state of Tasmania, really) you never hear of anyone having a pre-op diet. So it beats me why you guys have to have it!

HI there, I was on the same high Protein low carb diet because I couldn't do the shakes due to the milk content. I have to admit, I messed up once and ate chicken strips and fries as I just had the most awful craving for comfort food. I too felt awful after eating it, and it almost made it worse because before eating it my cravings really werent that bad since I had been on the diet for over a week, after I ate it...it was very hard to get back on track (although i did) because the cravings just intensifed and made it harder to get through the next week. So my advice...go for the sugar free fudgesicles/popsicles and save yourself the guilt and cravings:thumbup:

That's right Latrice! Stay Strong...Much easier said than done...Today was a good day..I was determined more than ever to stick to it 6 days 6 days...Breakfast I changed it up a bit..Low Carb Slim Fast (Vanilla) with some frozen strawberries and blueberries....It was OK..not a oreo shake from Sonic but it got the job done...Before I knew it ...it was lunch time. I had my tuna salad for lunch and had some almonds for a snack. Then I get home ready to eat dinner and guess what...I forgot to drop the meat from the freezer! GRRRR....all gravy though! Had me a slim fast for dinner and there ya go! Now, I know if I can do it..we all can do it. I just keep thinking of the blog I read yesterday...about the doctors opening me up and cancelling my surgery...HECK NO! I have worked wayyyyy to hard for this and I refuse to get cancelled b/c of something I HAD control over! WE CAN DO IT!!!! WE HAVE TO DO IT!! There are no exceptions...well except for the Cookies I had last night...BUT THAT'S IT! LOL

lol.. i only read the main post, but im sure others have said what i will say... or prehaps not... u will have day's like that. I will tell u as long as u didn't eat a pound or 1/2 pound of m&m u are fine. Drink some milk of magnesia and it will push everything out of u. some days u will have cravings and what i do is to get chocolate kisses and eat a few. That normally does it for me. but i am a huge snacker, chips and crap and it is definately mind over matter.. something that i am struggling with right now. The band will allow u to eat that crap so u just have to be strong and know that the prize is u loosing weight and getting to your goal..... I have been banded for a little over 2mths and my brain is thinking 6 or so.. and i have to remind myself that I am doing damn good for being 2 1/2 mths out.... U can do it... just take one day at a time...

      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. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
