Trust me. You will know and you will know quick. you get the typical full feeling and if you overdo it it can be a bit painful. Its always best to portion your meals so you dont overeat. Eat nice and slow.

Ooooh, I'll take the flank steak and the chicken!!!! Those look really good.

decided to try a little meal prepping today. Rarely ever get to prep because i work overnights and sleep all day lol. for the next couple days i am working afternoons so freed me up.
One has flank steak, another has grilled chicken and the other pork tenderloin. Each with onions, peppers and brown rice.
been having issues trying to find sides to go with the meat. I hate most veggies lol.

I'll take 2 chicken and 2 pork.
Good luck,
Tek

I just scheduled my surgery for October 4th! I am also going to get the VSG. I have been working with my surgeon since May. I have a pre op weight loss goal that I’m still working on, and I had already lost some weight before meeting the surgeon. In total they want me to be down 57 pounds from my heaviest weight. I have about 20 pounds to go still. I’m also working on the fast food bit. That’s definitely been a hard one for me. It’s so easy to just want to pick something up after a long day.

So far I have slowly made changes to
1.)only eating fast food maybe once a week. I would have it 5+ meals a week last year.
2.) reducing most processed foods (nothing is off limits, but if it’s not healthy, be mindful of the portion)
3.) not eating when not hungry
4.) I used to drink a glass of sweet tea a day, dropped that to occasional - drinking Water or unsweet tea almost exclusively except for my weekly Margarita:)
I am on a diabetic medicine which has helped with the process because it has changed the way my stomach processes food and helped me to make the lifestyle changes now. Thanks to that I have lost 50 already and hoping to loose more by the time for surgery.
my next step is to try to do a test run on the pre op diet so I can not have my eating issues complicate matters when time comes (which hopefully will let me loose more)
it’s a journey I want to be success at so bad!!

Looking at October 2022 for my surgery (vsg)
anyone else around that time ???

I am already making a lot of dietary changes and want to do a “trial run” of some of the presurgical dietary requirements so that my brain and food issues don’t sabotage my success when it comes down to go time.

Soo…. Roll call for October ??
