Well folks they are having trouble with getting my IV set up. So they have to do it in the OR. Which has delayed my surgery time. Still waiting.

Two days post op and in having terrible pain at my drain site. My incisions are starting to hurt a little but as well. Can't wait for Dr. Luna to remove the drain today. Hopefully that stops the pain. On top of that I barely got any sleep. Guess I won't truly recover til I'm home in my own bed.

I've been there even tho the drain is moved the pain doesn't go away that soon. Wait for the gas cause it's gonna come! Tea doesn't help much cause before u can drink it all it's already cold. But as much walking as u can do really really helps. But it's gets better! Am 3 months post op. just of late an dealing with acid reflux which is a pain some 3 weeks now. But best of luck with u :)

Hi shorties! I was sleeved 1/23. I'm 4'11.5". Highest weight 222. Presurgery weight 202; now 189. I haven't seen the scale move since last Monday so one week with no change. Trying not to get frustrated. Really bad Constipation to the point I think I'd lose five pounds if I could go! Recommendations?

      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.
