I agree with Deb. It may be rough at first but you'll be back to normal soon. I woke up feeling like I had been run over by an 18 wheeler. But it gradually got better. Now, life is great! Enjoy your new life and let us know how you're doing when you're able to.

Thanks so much, everyone!!!!

I had a lot of pain in my shoulder from the gas on Monday and Tuesday, so the doctor kept me another night. Was definitely ready to be sprung by the time I left on Wednesday! Still had a lot of pain until yesterday, but some retail therapy (and walking) and getting cozy with my heating pad really helped. Also had some tummy issues, but I'm pretty sure it was the sucralose in the Water ice, I picked up because it stopped when I stopped having them. Not hungry at all, but am anxious to move on from Jello, broth, Water Ice, and Isopuke. broth mostly tasted like dishwater until I figured out that I should use stock instead and add some spices which I strain out after heating. Still working on getting the spices quite right.

Congrats! I got sleeved the day after you and it sounds like we had very similar experiences. I had to stay and extra day because of pain from my diaphragm area and I also had shoulder pain until last night. I did find getting out and about did help last night as far as feeling better, but I really feel sore today from it.

      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.

      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.
