Recommended Posts

Hey there my friends!

I would use some of your help.Its 3.5 weeks since my operation and 3th day since I experience a strange stomach and abdomen pain everytime i eat or drink something.Its not a terrible pain but not pleasant and constant.

I got scared and called my surgeon and he said everything was ok and I only have to eat slower.Is strange couse I didnt have this pain before and now when Im supposed to feel better it came up.

Could you tell me if some of you had this too and if its not a reason to be worried.

Thank u very much!

I had discomfort when I first started moving from liquids. I think part of it was having to learn to eat slower and to chew my food better before swallowing.

I too had this pain. It is just part of the healing process. If you progress to another level of post op eating and have any problems, just go back to the stage you are trying to progress out of for a few more days. We all heal at different rates and this pain is just your body's way of letting you know it isn't ready to "progress" on to the next level.

Take care, relax, and enjoy the ride!!! You will do great.

BTW, welcome to the loosers bench!!! Best wishes to you:thumbup1:.

      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.
