@s7t....hi glad to hear u are doing well.....what's G2?

Its Gatorade but the 2 is gatorade with less calories and sugar than the regular. I particularly like the fruit punch one and its been a real great help getting my fluids in... plus the electrolytes help a lot too. :) Totally recommend!

Getting sleeved the 28.. a week away

I had replied to this post early in the thread.

I was scheduled for May 7. I went in for the surgery, but the surgeon cancelled the proceedure when he saw that my stomach was too red and inflamed. (I would rather have a cancelled proceedure than complications.)

So... I'm adjusting... This is definitely not what I was expecting.

I will have a re-check in 8 weeks.

Right now I'm not sure whether or not I will continue efforts to have the surgery. It took everything for me to show up for the surgery and to have it not happen was rough.

For now, at least, I will continue my weight loss journey without surgery.

Best wishes to all of you May sleevers!

:)

Thanks blackie220! :)

Well... there isn't anything I can do for at least 8 weeks. So I'll get through the 8 weeks and go from there.

I wish you amazing success with your new sleeve! I appreciate your encouragement!

:)

I was sleeved on May 15th..I can't believe I can actually say that. With reading some people's story, I was a little concerned, not enough to discourage me, just a little concerned.

Was released from hospital Friday afternoon and the last time I took any pain meds since the morning I left the hospital. I sleep well, have worked up to walking 30 mins today and can even sleep on my stomach.

Just a little hard getting all fluids and Proteins in, but work real hard each and every day to improve.

I have been truly blessed and pray every day for everyone on here!

      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.
