I'm 4/21/2012!

Dropped slightly more than 10lbs now.

I've been struggling, one day feeling good, the other feeling really weak...

Like today, was going to collapse while walking..

I really have no appetite to get any food in... :(

Cant find any buddy to meet up in Singapore.. Was hoping to get some support from this forum!

Cheers everyone!

I was sleeved on the 19th but won't know how much I have lost until the 30th. It has been a tough week and still sore.

Hi babypumas! I was sleeved on the 19th too. I'm feeling pretty good. It seems like one day you'll wake up and notice how good you feel. It just gets better and better each day. Hang in there! Keep up on your meds and keep resting.

Thanks, I am taking it one day at time and trying to rest as much as I can while the kids are in school but I am so glad I did this.

Welcome and congrats on your surgery. It is like that in the beginning. I feel like that sometimes, but less so now that I am almost one month. You really need to watch your Fluid intake. Make sure you are getting all of your Water. And take it easy. Take naps when you need to. It's major surgery, so it will take awhile. Good luck to you! Best wishes.

Congrats to everyone!!!! Hope everything is going good for everyone! :) I think things are slower than what I was expecting. I was sleeved on the 3rd & have lost 18.3 lbs. I am thankful for every pound, but it seems to be coming off slow.

      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.
