Make sure if anything u have your Protein Drinks and Popsicles at home for when u go home. Between the breathing tube and endoscopy, I barely had a voice. 12 hours after surgery I was given the ok for a Popsicle. I was in heaven. My pouch didn't tolerate Jello.< /p>

Was feeling pretty good until today. I have a pain just to the left of my belly button that really hurts. Have tried walking more, heat pad, and ice pack without much relief. Anyone else experiencing this?

I had that too. My surgeon told me it will take longer to go away as the site on the left was where they put the stapler in and removed items

Bird the one I had was a big jug that you chose a flavor pack and mixed with Water and the stuff. It took about an hour to kick in after I finished it all but be prepared to sit on the throne for an hour lol..... Hope ya have wifi! And honestly some moist wipes were quite soothing after

LOL! With drinking Clear Liquids all week, there isn't ANY cleaning out left! I'm down 14# in two weeks! (I dont dare try to pass gas! Or I leave a mess!). TMI? sorry! Can't imagine what the Golytly will do!

What ime is your surge on Monday? Are you nervous? I'm not..yet. Going to drive down Monday a.m. to the hospital & check in at 8:30! I'll be thinking of you! Keep posting,. I'm taking my iPad with so I'll be doing the same!

Best wishes to you!

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
