How Much Weight Did You Lose On Your Pre Gastric Sleeve Surgery Diet?



Recommended Posts

I lost 10 pre-op on a two week, Protein Shake breakfast/lunch and a lean and green dinner. I did cheat on the 2nd and 3rd day of it, though. It was my daughter's birthday and we had pizza and cake/ice cream. I was still so weak willed, but I was able to pull it together after that.

i remember in 2005, i had lost so much weight & i said id never go back! well, i went back & added 53lbs to it! smh. im glad this surgery will help me stay focused!

I remember thinking the same thing when I posted my starting weight!

I can't believe I just typed my weight!! Yes, the weight I will NEVER be again!!!

But you will never have to type that again (except when you are celebrating how far you've come!)

I was told the same thing. I know they were able to get extra days covered for me with my csecs due to complications. I'm assuming this might be similar?

I was only there overnight. Believe me if you're doing OK, you'll want to get out of the hospital ASAP!

      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. 🤞
