Hello, all!

Hope everyone is doing well. The last month has gone by fast, and I've been doing really well. Until today.....

I went for my first fill today. I only got 2.5 cc (long story), but I feel horrible. My stomach is crampy. I have that pain that radiates up into my left shoulder. I'm just plain uncomfortable. I can drink ok, and I guess it's a good thing I'm not allowed to eat until Thursday...liquids only.

Bottom line, is this supposed to suck this bad? LOL

Thanks!

I always feel yucky the rest of the day. Don't know why. It almost feels like really bad mendtral cramps with tummy ache n back ache. I always schedule at end of day so I can take pain meds and go to bed. No fun at all.

I had my first fill yesterday--3.5cc's. I was MISERABLE!! Nothing would go down right, I was starving but couldn't eat and on and on. I finally called my dr today and went in to have .5cc removed. It was amazing how much better I felt right away!!! Hang in there, but don't assume this is how it is. Listen to your body. My gut was telling me as I was pulling away from the dr's office the first time that something wasn't right. Good luck!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
