Had my sleeve done October 27th and for the past two weeks I have been stuck - even gained a few pounds back. I am feeling so frustrated! I had lost 41 lbs...

I know some of it is being back to work, my cycle being off, and starting to reintroduce foods. Feel like I should go back to the liquid diet just to gain some control again. Just need to vent.

The 41 lbs is since October 13th... started with the 2 week pre-op liquid diet. I had just started doing purees the day before Thanksgiving. so Thanksgiving dinner for me was mashed potatoes and gravy with a little bit of turkey mixed in. I am now in my last of 2 weeks of soft foods. I'm thinking of going back to the psychologist. I have noticed that even though I'm not hungry, I am still eating more out of habit, and I need to stop! I am defeating myself again as always. Just need to work on the head game!

I'm sure it's a combination of PMS, my body catching up, and eating again... I'll get there.

Have you scheduled your sleeve? Good luck!

      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

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
