The gasses are incredibly uncomfortable. I had a hiatal hernia in addition to the sleeve and when I woke up I hurt a lot in my chest from the gasses. But, within a few hours of walking around and burping the pressure let up and I was more comfortable. I am sipping Water constantly, I am home now after staying the night last night. Even though I'm very sore still I'm more excited than ever! It's over and now all I have to do is heal and listen to my docs and my body and all will be well. Can't wait to work on the first few days of the rest of my life!

I am glad you came out ok. I pray the gas pains go away soon. I am not looking forward to that. But at least you had the heads up. Now so do I.

The gas pains are gone pretty much as of the second day, day 4 and I almost feel like myself again. Good luck everyone with a speedy recovery, this is going to be an amazing journey!

      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.
