Greetings June sleeves! I had my sleeve yesterday, June 3rd! All has gone well. My surgery was in the morning and I was up walking in the early afternoon. I have only been allowed ice chips so far. I have not experienced any hunger since Sat after the bowel prep. Right now I am just thirsty. I go to Tue surgeons office later this morning for a leak check and then on to a 2 1/2 drive home.

Congratulations, I am so glad that you are doing well. How is the pain? I am a big baby when it comes to that!

Hey Juners! I was sleeved yesterday morning!!!! I just passed the leak test and spoke to the doctor, he said the surgery went very smoothly. I have been walking the halls since yesterday afternoon, it really is the "secret" to get rig of the crampy gas pains, then all I am left with is the incisional pain. I am trying to eat some chicken broth right now, it is actually comical.. I take 1 small spoonful and have to burp 3 times...

      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.
