I know everybody's surgeon has their own approach to things, post-op, but my surgeon highly recommends avoiding caffeine after having WLS. No Red Bull for me. :)

And here I thought Red Bull (sugar free) was caffeine free too. :(

I love (loved) Red Bull

I don’t like red bull anyway it was always too sweet for me, but if you have sweet taste buds now you might find that stuff disgusting!

I used to get real tired as I'm sure a lot of us did prior to the sleeve. Being the diabolical genius that I am, I would drink a large 24oz energy drink with one of the 5 hour energy shots poured in it every morning. I did that every day for almost a year. Until it caused my kidneys to fail.

Yeah the side effect they don’t tell you about with energy drinks kidney stones/problems!

I would suggest that you let the surgery do its work and fight through your body being tired. Your body is adjusting to lower calorie intake, it took a long time for your body to get to that point so give it a little time to adjust to your new weight and calorie intake. I am at 4 months now and starting to get more energy naturally.

      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. 🤞
