*makes a face* It's awful. I cried for days. Bled too. We had to buy a new bed from all the nasty drainage. I've been banded for a month now and still can't sit up-- ow! Ok, I'm lying and have just been slapped by all my fellow bandsters here. *evil grin*

Seriously, youre going to be sore but people differ so much. Some go out shopping the next day while others take a couple of weeks to get back to normal. It's really not that bad at all.

*smiles* Sorry if I scared you. I'm just in a "mood" today. Watch out LBT you've been warned! *laughs*

When I woke up from surgery the pain was pretty bad but they kept pumping me with drugs aaaaaaaah.... I was hurting for about 2 days and then it started to lesson more and more, I didn't need my pain killers after about the 2nd or 3rd day.

It was worth it though.

Well my pain was alright. I mean I knew I had surgery, and I was glad I was in the hosiptal overnight to get some meds, but to tell you the truth when I went home the next morning, we went to get my pain meds at the pharmacy, and they did not have it, and wouldn't until the next day. They gave me "free" liquid (regular) tynolnol (can't spell), and that is what I used until my pain med came in the next day. I think I took one dose, :tired and I put the rest down the drain. I was back to work in 3 days (I had a sit down job), but I would never recommend it to anyone, I got tired.

But as for pain, not bad, my migrains are worse :phanvan

Remember that everyones pain level is different.

      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. 🤞
