3 days post op I made it!!! Lol (knocking on wood) day 1 was ruff I remember everything up until surgery pre op after that I was gone!! I woke up in recovery they wanted me to cough no problem. I can here my husband and mother in law just don't remember seeing them. That's how my day 1 felt like I had my surgery out by 12:30 walking by 5pm boy does that help. Day 2 pressure pain on abdominal area super bad gas pains horrified left side of shoulder just kept walking as much as I could. 10am cathedeter removed peed solo by 12:30 again I just kept waking Ice chips wasn't feeling them but I had no problems with them just didn't have a taste for anything!! (Food commercial were making me sick) I felt better sleeping on the chair more than anything too. 3rd day I am up already I have very little pain on my stomach just sore I am sitting up now and dr said I will get liquids today. Husband is passed out they brought in a bed for him as well I had a hernia and my gallbladder removed.

I haven't weighed my self yet we are still extremely swollen and bloated. I been having my 3 meals which all consist of broth, pudding,or Jello , applesauce an apple juice. I don't even get near a 3rd of that in but with all my sips I feel content. Oh and sugar free Popsicle at least one :)

Good luck

And

Kinda worried I'm still over my starting weight by over 5 lbs---

And it's been 4 days---

And I'm not eating all my Protein yet-- it's wired it's like I don't realize part of my stomach is gone but at the same time I'm not really hungry and I'm scared to move stages yet

      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.
