AaahRoo! I have a surgery date! I will be sleeved at last by Dr. Fernando Otero on August 14' date=' 2012 at John Muir Hospital-Concord Campus CA. I'm very excited of course!! I'm hoping to find other August sleevers to treck the journey with. I'm so ready to get this weighted ball rolling you just don't know...

I've been putting on weight since the birth of my first child 20 years ago. Things really got out of hand when I seperated from the military in 2006. No limits,No mandatory runs,No mandatory weigh-ins makes Gr8rLuv a very big, bad girl :P !! Currently, I'm miserable...My joints-Achy wrists,back,hips,knees and ankles. sleep Apnea-I got it, Cpap-I wear it. I can't wait to get back to my normal...BMI,Weight, Activity,Sleep. I've lost enough time...I'm ready for the RESET button!![/quote']

Welcome! I live in Napa and having surgery August 27th at Kaiser South San Francisco! I'm right there with you on the " reset" button! You'll love this topic....awesome, supportive people right at your fingertips! I quietly thank futureskinnypants everyday for starting this topic and being a catalyst for such a supportive group.

Happy Saturday to everyone. Only 4 more days until my sleeve day arrives. I am excited! I hope that everyone who has gone through the sleeve has a good, healthy, and speedy recovery. On my way to a new, healthier, and enjoyable 'me'. I hope everyone has a terrific day today. Positive thoughts to all!!

I'm hungry but scared to eat. I eat a little and I immediately have to use the restroom. Trying to find something I can eat and be full.

I'm hungry sometimes I think. My stomach growls and I do take the antacid pills. Had surgery Aug.14th only ate 158 calories yesterday and 50 oz of Water. Seems all I do is drink water. 10 more days on full liquid then soft, so maybe it will get better.

If you're already sleeved does anyone feel hungry?

I didn't really have much of an appetite for the first few days post op.remember your tummy is still trying to figure out what's goin on!!... my hunger is here now (day 16 since surgery) definitely, i will consume 1/2 cup of Soup and then i'm ok.

      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.
