I had my surgery in this past Thursday. Everything went well for the first two days I was so sick couldn't hold anything down. But I am in day 3 of the juice party and will be starting Protein Shakes tomorrow. Don't feel like I have lost weight.

hang in there....it will get better

Sounds odd that you can't have Protein. Did you double check with your Dr? It's so essential for your body. 1 week post ops I'm clear liquid/protein. 64oz Water, broth, etc and 60 grams of protein.

Sleeved on the 17th, two days in the hospital, home for 3 days and back in the hospital for dehydration and low blood sugar. What a learning experience that was! I'm diligently sipping my fluids and have slowly started moving into full liquids. Had some butternut squash Soup and a pudding cup today and feel pretty good. Down 9 lbs. from surgery. Totally pleased with the results.

Walk, walk, walk. I got up and made myself walk every two hours and it made a world of difference. Never had any pain from gas, just a little discomfort but it passed quickly.

When you find out, please post. I'm in the same boat.

I'm going in to get some IV fluids today. I'm not super dehydrated, but I've only hit 64oz liquid 1 time in the 3 weeks since surgery. Most days I get about 40oz.

      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. 🤞
