Wondering - is anyone else concerned about our overall nutrition? I'm getting at least 60 grams of Protein per day but not eating alot of veggies and almost no fruit or whole grains.

I take a Multi-Vitamin, Calcium, Vitamin D, B12, Omega 3, and Biotin daily - but I've always thought that getting most of my nutrition from food was much better than getting it from supplements.< /p>

I'd be interested in your thoughts my Sleeve Sisters (are there any men in our little band of merry losers???).

I am eating so much healthier than I was pre sleeve. I ate a lot of fast food, processed food and just plain junk! I am now preparing my meals ahead of time and loving it. I think my nutrition is much better now! I was also not taking Vitamins before. Kinda surprised I'm still alive... lol

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!! So... I don't feel like I over ate at all today... But I think the introduction of too many different foods has made Steve the Sleeve very unhappy. I had a bite of most everything but honestly just dumped everything right after I ate it. Kinda bummed but it is what it is!!

I have heard there isnt much you can do either...i take extra Biotin to help the other hair stay healthy and grow faster lol hopefully it wont b noticable to others.

I was sleeved a couple days before you and haven't noticed Hair loss yet. I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

      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.
