I am really sore too. I was home from surgery around 1pm on Thursday, slept pretty much until yesterday. I would get up, walk around the house, sip some Water and then lay back down. This morning I feel a bit better and I just drank a Protein drink hoping that will help as well. Worse than the pain for me (which seems to include my whole torso) is the dryness. My mouth, nose and throat are soooooo dry it is about to drive me crazy. One of the people on here said it was the patch for nausea that is causing most of it. I think I will try to take it off today. Have you had any other issues? I hope not. I did have a low grade fever like 99.8 but I don't seem to have that today.

Just keep telling yourself it is the first days of our new life and I am counting on what these people say about feeling great after week two. I hope so. Keep me posted on how you are doing!

Oh yes, the throat definitely hurts! My chest not so much but it does hurt in front of my shoulders. Today has been a bit better plus I took off that patch so I'm hoping I'll regain some moisture in my mouth and nose! Hope you are okay today!!!

I was surprised that I did the liquids as well as I did. I had Protein Drinks, lots of Water and in between I had crystal light....A glass in my hand from morning till night. I made my husband fix his own dinners and I stay out of sight of the food.< /em>

You'll do well just hang in there!

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      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
