I'm good, everything went well, and I hardly have any pain. No hunger at all, not like before the surgery, seems like I'm gonna have to force myself to eat, instead of before being sleeved.

Take care y'all!

The pain for me was worse than I expected. I was super nauseous for 36 hours. Turns out I was intolerant to the medicines they had me on. Now I'm on something new and feel pretty good! Not hungry at all!

Doing well not a lot of pain but had some nausea today. Slept quite a bit and atleast the gas pains are not unbearable. I realize I have to drink slower than I am used to. But doing well thank God

I'm not in a huge amount of pain but I am pretty uncomfortable from the gas and stuff. Been doing everything by the book and writing down every single thing i do. Overkill maybe but I don't care. I'm going to walk 6x a day...10 minutes each which is what they suggested. They took me off blood pressure meds because I was on a diuretic. So I got a blood pressure monitor to make sure I'm good with that. Doing my breathing treatments too.

Not a whole lot of pain just the uncomfortable gas bloat in the abdominal area. I ave been walking, this helps a lot. A little nausea! No vomiting. Still trying to remember small sips...it's kinda hard to retrain yourself.

      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.
