Recommended Posts

What ones are we aloud to have for fruits and veggies. I know I can't have celary and citrus I don't know if I can have.maybe I can I think I have to take the membranes off. So what fruits and veggies are okay to eat? I really love pineapple, oranges, apples, pears, grapes, and strawberries. Oh I also don't think I can have bananas I don't know. I hope I can have salads again hmm so yeah

Who said you can't have bananas? Your doctor? I have eaten them since the very beginning.

Did you decide to keep your band? I think I read once you were wanting it removed. I hope it all works out for you. I know since you are younger it might make life a little harder for you. I hope you decide to keep it. I think you will be happy you did later on. But what I read sound like you have had touch times. Hope they get better for you!!

Ever. The dr said the sugar from the fruit will cause you to eat more and weight loss will not be as significant.

Bananas and melons have the highest sugar content. My doctor said to eat them sparingly. As far as other fruits, I can eat them, but I have to take the skins off (apples, plums, etc) and be wary of stringy fruits like pineapple and oranges.

      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. 🤞
