Recommended Posts

Way to go Stacie! I am also sleeving Monday' date=' 4/23 at 11am in Charlotte, NC. Here is a tip: Isopure drinks from GNC work well in Jello, just use it in lieu of the cup of cold water.....mix and match the flavors to add Protein to jello for that first week, could also use Gatorade 3 which has protein ;)[/quote']

KayBaby.....I live in Monroe and I'm getting sleeved Tuesday 4/24 at Presby Matthews. You're the 1st person I've found on here that lives close to my area. Who is your doctor?

Stirling - we are here for you. the last thing you need before surgery is negativity and pressure. They should respect what you have decided to do. You have made the right decision for yourself, and you can get the support you deserve and need right here. Good luck kiddo! Be strong.

We"re here. Check in as soon as you can.

I leave for the hospital at 9. I'm east coast. Will check later.

They gave me a patch to put behind my ear. It is supposed to keep me from throwing up. It is making me nauseous.

I am 5 days post op and had some sugar free hot chocolate in the hosptial that was very good. Some warm Water with a spoon of sugar free Jello powder is also a good warm drink for the tummy. Of course Decaf tea and coffee is allowed. While in the hospital I had optisource carmel ready mixed Protein and it was good. Now that I'm home I do the nectar chocolate truffle with cold water and drink my ounce the first part of the hour and it goes down well. For lunch I'm going to have some unijury chicken Protein Drink. Hope all is gong well for you.

Yeah I have been trying a ton of Soups, and liquids. I think that its not the cold so much as its the dairy in the soups, grits and etc. So, I think i'm gonna steer clear of dairy for a while.

      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.
