Sleeve Done On 9/12



Recommended Posts

How about trying crushed ice chips? That's what I've been doing...I was worried about staying hydrated as well. My surgery was this past Monday 9/10/12. I am doing fine so far. I like the crushed ice you can get from any Sonic drive in...they will sell you a bag. I like Crystal Lite Peach tea flavor as well...I have also learned to Water down any chicken broth I can't seem to stand the smell of it...go figure. I had a one week pre-diet before my surgery and today I was down 17 pounds! Can't wait to get this first few weeks behind me!

I had trouble sipping Water constantly as well but I did chop up sugar free popsicles into little pieces and ate those to help supplement my intake. It worked out well for me.

You're probably reacting to the cold of the Popsicle. Stick with room temp or barely warm until the swelling gets better for optimal comfort.

Per someone else's advice on this forum I got a kids sippy cup (I took the thing out that makes it not leak if it falls over) - I have been able to drink so much more since I started using the sippy cup. Also, I started on my Protein Shakes today and it has been great because the smell of the shake makes me nauseated!

      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.
