2 Days Post-Op



Recommended Posts

Was banded on Friday 07/27. The surgery went really well. I am in a bit of pain but it is bearable. I'm not feeling hungry at all, and have hardly had anything. I am trying my best to get Water in as I know I have to stay hydrated. I'm not sure exactly how I'm supposed to feel in terms of restriction?

you will feel restriction due to the surgery.

the other restriction will come with your fills later on.

you just had major surgery so sip as much as you can and do your sf popsicles to help with that.

Hey guys, I'm now 6 days post-op, doing well, healing fast, have been feeling hungry though. Trying to drink lots of Water. Can't wait for this liquid phase to be over! I've been craving the craziest things, what I would give for a slice of toast right about now. I been doing good around food and have been sticking to liquids despite cooking for my husband everyday. Hope you guys are all doing well also :)

      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.
