I had my surgery on Friday and I have to say I feel fine. Today I had one can of Soup which lasted 3 sittings and a third of a Protein shake. Am I doing too good? Is there a such thing?

It's almost been 64 hours.

Your doing fine. You don't want to eat a lot right after surgery.

Thank you so much!!

I don't feel hungry at all but I just wanted to make sure I wasn't eating too much or progressing too quickly.

I'm sticking to shakes, Soups for the first 3 wks so let's see :)

Everybody's sleeve size is different, as our stomachs all start out different sizes. So you may be able to eat more than person A, but less than person B. As long as you take it slow, and follow your docs advice, you'll be just fine!

Thank you all. I couldn't sleep much last night probably cause of my huge nap in the day and lack of activity but I have woken up feeling so dehydrated and dizzy today. Gonna try and drink something and will keep you all posted xx

      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.
