I was sleeved on 2/6 also. Feeling ok, learning what I can and cannot drink, but having a horrible constant gas like pain right in the middle of my chest. I'm calling my dr today since it's becoming bothersome.

So far I've had blended Soup, cream of chicken, cream of wheat Cereal, fauxsagna (ricotta cheese sprinkled with garlic with a spoon of spaghetti sauce on top) and half an ounce of 50x chewed scrambled eggs.

I can barely take a few bites of any one thing, but the cream of wheat went down SOOOO well!

Had my 1st post op visit today and got the dang drain out! soooo glad of that. No problems so far, been able to drink good and started full liquids yesterday.

Dr, said everything is looking good! He did send me to have a CBC and a UA though since my pulse was high and my temp was 99.2. They were fine though I think I was just nervous to have the drain out LOL

With the preop and post op weight loss I"m down #15... so that works for me, wish it was more but hey it will keep going down...and I will be where I wanna be in no time :) keeping my eye on the prize !

Hi. I go for my check up tomorrow. I hope he takes the drain out!!! I'm on 2 Optifast shakes a day plus Jello, broth, and Water. Can't wait to try new foods. I was sleeved also on the 6th. Everything went great except I got a urinary tract infection. I have never had one before. Great luck to everyone!!!!

      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. 🤞
