:) I got my sleeve yesterday and I'm in love! No hunger or thirst.... =D this is going to make loosing weight so much easier! I'm about to go do my swallow test and see if I can have ice chips! NOW THAT'S SOMETHING I NEED!!! My mouth is super dry. 5 small scars. One of which is in my belly button! :) 2 are just above my belly button! Here's to wearing a cute bathing suit for spring break next year! :) I'm ready to get moving. I can do laps with no problem!

I was sleeved on the 17 th too! Yesterday was pretty bad with all the gas in my torso. I work thinking "what the hell did I do?" I think I actually told the PAC nurse "this is done B***sh**.

I'm slightly ashamed of myself today but I'm going to blame in on the narcotics!

Today I'm feeling better. How are you guys doing?

      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.
