Call all who were sleeved May 8th (or close)! How are you doing?



Recommended Posts

I was sleeved May 8th! I am feeling great. Start mushies tomorrow. Lots of energy. Lost 13 pounds preop and 12 since surgery but no loss in past week. Still, living my sleeve. Finally feel in control of my food, not a slave to it!

High weight: 275

Surg weight After two week preop diet: 262

Current weight: 250

Enjoying how much time I have now that I'm not obsessing about food all the time. My family is happy, too. Can't wait to lose more and continue this journey.

Tell me your story!!! :)

I had my sleeve on May 16th.....only last week. I'm still pretty sore and not sleeping much cuz I can't seem to get comfy. I'm still pretty happy I went ahead with the surgery. my original date was April 8th but there were complications with the breathing tube that caused me to spend some time in the hospital but that still did not discourage me. I redid the liquid diet and had a successful surgery the 16th. I started out at 261....after liquids was 234 and now I'm 225. Pretty excited!!

      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. 🤞
