Hello all!!!

I'm 2 months post-op.

Im 2o-25lbs down so far. (not as much as i hoped i would be about now)

My sleeve can tolerate a lot of things that other people are scared to eat i guess? I find myself getting hungry a lot.

I feel like i can eat a lot.

I eat and then im stuffed but if i wait like 30 minutes im hungry again. Does anyone else do this???

Im know that i am not getting nearly enough Protein in and frankly i cant stand it anymore.

My tummy is flatter.

Im in a smaller size jeans :) super happy about that.

I can tell that i am getting smaller and i love it. I def do not regret my sleeve at all. I love it.

Life is pretty awesome right now <3

advice and suggestions are welcome.

I'm 5 weeks out and I'm the same with getting hungry, about 30mins-1 hour after I eat I'm hungry again. I'm trying to get my Protein in but I'm getting about half what I'm supposed to everyday.

I'm down 46lbs, 26lbs was Pre op.

I'm loving life too!! My clothes are looser and people are complementing me about the loss. Are you exercising?

I have to eat every 3 hours or I feel like my sleeve is eating my intestines. It gets worse around my period. I feel like I can eat more during that time, as well as being more hungry. Make sure that when you are eating you are eating stuff that's going to help you and not hurt you. Good luck!

I'm 9 weeks out and down about 33 pounds. I don't feel hungry a lot but I think that's because I'm on a daily reflux med. But I find it really hard to eat anything honestly... I WANT to eat but I can only tolerate Soups comfortably. If I try chicken or anything dense it comes right back up again. But I also really struggle with eating slowly.

Over all I feel good but would like to be losing faster... I haven't had to buy any new clothes yet either :( !

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
