The Water made me really nauseous too so my doctor let me drink tea with sweet and low! It has really helped me.. I'm 4 months out and down 56lbs and don't get nauseous from water anymore but I don't like the taste of plain water it helps to be able to drink tea..

I'm only allowed minimal ice chips right now sooooo I won't be too much help with the Water sipping yet, but congrats to all of my fellow sleevers! And thanks to all of you for your congrats! Wish me luck with the peeing thing! They are going to cath me at 10pm if I can't pee on my own. And also not looking forward to the barium swallow tomorrow, but it is all worth it.

Haha, I got thretened with the cath also if I didn't pee in an hr. I hoped right out of the bed and stood in the bathroom until I could force something out lol. The swallow sucked but it was super quick.

      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.
