I am looking forward to more of your comedy posting. Although I value the support here, "How do I get my Protein in?" and "I can't stop eating chips but can't understand why I can't lose weight" just don't make me laugh like your post.:-)

I find no humor in this either. Very offensive and done in poor taste

Agreed!

You had me at a plate full of cookie dough. I was like heck, how can she fit a plate full of anything. I can barely make it to my 1/4 cup meal. Getting it on one week after surgery was an impossibility. Wow, I couldn't even sleep on my side back then. Just getting out of bed required concentration.

You are so funny.

I didn't mean to offend anyone. I'm just nervous about my surgery tomorrow and was blowing off steam by joking. I think it was my way of reminding myself that though this surgery will fix my weight it's not going to prevent me from making mistakes in life and it's up to me to work towards the life I want regardless of my weight.

It seems like this site is full of perfect people who are totally committed and following their orders perfectly and having no slip ups at all, just perfect little angels and I just wanted to say- hey, if your not perfect, like me, if your scared like me, and if you are staring real life in the face and know that even post surgery life won't be easy all the time, I'm hear for you. Let's be great, successful, and imperfect together. I would have a hard time finding support in a site where anyone who isn't perfect or jokes around at the hard truths gets shunned.

It makes me happy to make people laugh and not to take life too seriously all of the time because most of the time, it is!! Thank you for your comments, I appreciate them and hope you are all doing well.

We all food issues here. It is definitely okay to be nervous. Even after the surgery certain foods are still hard for me. This is a great place for support and I am sure you would have gotten some good advise if the post was true. I hope all goes well with your surgery and that you will have tremendous success.

Well said. We've got to keep a sense of humor to make it through this lifestyle change.

Holy crap! At first I was thinking OMG, this can't possibly be for real. No one would actually do this.

I'm glad I read it to the end too, otherwise I would have not only been shocked, but very concerned for you.

I can't say I'm offended, but I do agree with others that think maybe it wasn't the best thing to do, considering that some people may have had those types of issues before having the surgery. We're all more *#*($ up than we think.

@bellabloom--So glad you were kidding! So your surgery is tomorrow? You'll do great.

I am 6 weeks out, and honestly......I couldn't "cheat" if I wanted to! My version of cheating was eating some Tomato Soup during pureed stage. My PA still wasn't happy when I told her because it just slides right through the pouch and doesn't keep you full.

BUT...I have YET to even feel hungry, so it must have kept me full enough!

This site is great for support--we won't let you lay around and drizzle nastiness into your mouth!!

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

        I had about 6 months between deciding to do surgery and getting scheduled. I came across the book The Pound of Cure by Dr. Matthew Weiner, a bariatric surgeon in Arizona, and started to implement some of the changes he recommended (and lost 13 lbs in the process without ever feeling deprived). The book is very simple, and the focus is on whole, plant based foods, but within reason. It's not an all or nothing approach, or going vegan or something, but focuses on improvement and aiming for getting it right 80-90% of the time. His suggestions are divided into 12 sections that you can tackle over time, perhaps one per month for a year if a person is just trying to improve nutrition and build good habits. They range from things like cutting out artificial sweetener or eating more beans to eating a pound of vegetables per day. I found it really effective pre-surgery and it's an eating style I will be working to get back to as I am further out from surgery and have more capacity. Small changes you can sustain will do the most for building good habits for life.

        That sounds awesome. I'll have to check that out thanks!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
