I was sleeved on 5/30. I am still at the hospital...surgery was fine until i got in the room...got a x ray and it showed no leaks..i kept vomiting every ten minutes it seemed like. The doctor decided the next day on saturday to see what was causing me to continue vomoiting...i had chest pains that felt like gas was being stuck inside..when i woke up i had a feeding tube down my throat continue out of my nose...i just started crying because it was so uncomfortable. With the help of God i made i thru the night

I got in the shower and even took morning wall down the hall i sat on my bed and began chocking and gagging on the feeding...it had to be pulled out...im now worried about what is next? The doctor described it as my stomach fluids are causing me to throw up that is why the feeding tube was in place to divrt my fluids down instead of up.i am now having freguent buile movements but is still throwing up even though i havent ate or dranked anything...if i knew i would have had these problems i would have never turned to the sleeve...i am just want this to be all over...can someone please let me know how the got thru this..i dont want any one to see me like this.....i am getting deppressed because i cant see the light at the end of the tunnel...i know this too shall pass..please keep me in your prayers!

God is a good God. He can and will heal your body in his name. It's already done.

Hey Gang, I am out of the hospital as of last Thursday. I am on a antibotic. Thanks for all of the prayers.......still trying to adjust but the worst part is over. Thanks again for all of the much needed prayers, I am waiting for the day that I dont have any regrets. This process has been a long one, that I hope I will eventually enjoy!

I'm sorry I missed this! Well I will continue on with prayer that everything continues to heal. :) I am glad to see you're doing much better!

Prayering for you! Everyone has a different experience with the sleeve. I was sick and had to stay for two days. Now am back in the hospital because I can't tolerate liquids or any mushies. They think it may be a kink at the bottom of my sleeve, but they are still running test! Please pray for me and I will do the same for you. God knows our limits and doesn't put more on you than you can bear. Keep us posted.

Continuing to pray for you and your good health. Please check in and let us know how you're doing!

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
