WOW! You started mushies so soon! I bet you are pleased! I have another week yet before I do, but I really don't mind the liquid diet at all.

The most important thing, they tell me, is to avoid vomiting, or lifting anything heavy. I am dying to get to the gym and do some weight work, but the doc says not yet, I should not do anything that involves the core muscles.

You will feel better and better as each day goes by...and as you fold up and give away those "fat clothes", lolol. Good luck! Teeli:thumbup:

Hello, I have been absent from this forum for a while, and just now found your post majj. I too want to welcome you and to let you know that you are already doing great!

There are a lot of nice, caring people here and they are ready and willing to help you out. I have learned so much from all the posts and have also gotten a lot of encouragement.

So welcome aboard! You are on your way to a better life. I know how good it feels to have my back, knees, hips, and feet free of 51 pounds they were carrying around!!!

Thanks Diana...I am doing well , feel great and if I wasn`t still a little sore I wouldn`t even know I had been fitted with a band...

At the moment I am sure the band is not doing a thing its my will power and determination that is keeping me sticking to the dietitians menue (plus I don`t want to put any strain on my tummy , I want the stitches to heal up and have no problems)...

I hope after I have a fill (6 weeks) I can feel the band helping me , because if I could have done this myself on just will power I would have , many years ago ..I need this band to Help... :smile2:

Have a Good weekend all ...

      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.
