7days post op and im having a really hard time getting in my Protein. I hate the powder and im over the shakes. At this point im jus suffering through hoping the day where I can get protein from solid foods will come sooner than later!! Otherwise blessed to be healing up well!

I completely understand. I'm only at the end of day 4 on the pre op diet and it sucks! My surgery is on the 26th and I am so ready for it just so I won't be hungry...okay that and I'm ready to begin my new life. Good luck!

I find out tomorrow at my pre op appointment if I have to go one. I hope I don't! But if I have to, I will just be glad it's shorter than a lot of the ones I have seen :)

I did have my sleeve done on monday and I am back home this morning

It was a bit difficult at time but overall it was OK

It was only two day ago and I am feeling much better

I had my firs shack today it went through no problem

Every one is different but for me it was a good thing to stay two days at the hospital that they keep you on IV and give saline all the time to flush the system

Good luck to every on who is going through

Who all is on their liquid diet? I started mine Monday, I could have waited till today to start it, but my son is gone to camp till tomorrow, so I thought it would be easier to start it when he wasnt home and I wasnt having to cook for him. It has worked out great. I was told if you can make it thru day3 or 4, you were good. So far, so good! I can only have Clear Liquids, broth, tea or coffee with sugar free sweetener, SF popsicles, SF Jello and 1-3 Protein Drinks (EAS AdvantEDGE brand only). Then on the day before, I can only have clear liquids and have to do a colon cleanse.. :blink: Fun day that will be....lol

      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. 🤞
