Ok I got sleeved on Monday woohoo!!! All went well was discharged the next day but struggled a bit when I came home with pain and gas. My pain was when I would drink so I was only able to drink 2 cups of Water and about 40 gms of Protein shot...today the pain is a little better was taking my liquid Vicodin every 4 hours on schedule to get ontop of the pain...today I didn't need to and the gas has started to dissipate. Only had a bit of nausea not much, only up to 3 cups of fluids right now but if I only get in 4 cups today (the hottest day ever even for Cali) I am ok with that. Not too worried about protein today will try harder tomorrow for protein.

You should do some research if using the protein shots..I have heard a lot of nuts don't recommend them because the protein in it isn't that absorbable..so really its only like you are getting maybe 15 to 20 grams...plus the body can only process 20 grams at a time of protein..

Protein shot is a concentrated forma of protein rangeing from 25-50gms of protein in 4oz fluid....my Nut recommends the shot especially in the first few days post op when getting any protein in is tough :)

Not sure about your research but the protein shot im drinking is made from whey isolate which is a highly absorbable form of protein...and as for ur body not being able to absorb much protein at a time....well it takes me the better part of 2 to 3 hrs sipping on the shot to consume it all...to each his own however u can get ur protein in

      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. 🤞

      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.
