Got sleeved this morning and I'm now in my room recovering. I won't lie it was rough for me. I woke up very sick and disorientated. I was so dizzy. But then things turned for the better and they gave me awesome drugs! I felt better quick. Can't stop sleeping and after just a sip of Water makes me feel very full.

Feel better. It will get better. Stay positive and when you are cleared to walk do it. I transitioned a lot from the bed to my chair. Good luck with your leak test tomorrow! You are on your way!!

My bp and diabetes was still a little high while I was in the hospital. It went down by the time I left the hospital to my first 2 week appt. but keep hydrated, very important.

I'm trying to stay hydrated but I have no interest in eating or drinking. I have to down my 4 little shots of Water within an hour lol. I'm feeling much better and actually haven't needed a lot of pain management today.

Sip, sip, sip. I'm sure it sucks!! Glad you're feeling better!! What's your start out weight and goals? I am 5'8" 291 44.2bmi. I'm shooting for 180 which would still put me at "obese" but I don't want to be too picky and I just want to be comfortable again.

I'm 5'6" my starting weight was 283 with a BMI of 43 I think. I would like to get back around 160 or so but 180 doesn't sound bad either just as long as its back in the 100's! Lol. The main thing is for my bp to go down and get off my meds.

I am 5'6" and started out at 183. BMI 43 I think. I would like to get back down to around 160, anything in the 100's! Lol The main goal is to lower my bp and get off my meds.

      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.
