I'm not a teen, I am the 21st. LOL I satrted a 10 day pre op liquid diet on Friday. Day one was ok. Day two was hard, was around a lot of food at a funeral. (But I made it). Today I have a headache. Not sure if related, but I assume it is. Also grumpy today. Tomorrow I have my EDG so I can't have anything until it is done. ( which isn't until 1:30pm!) That is going to be tough.. Good luck to all the October sleevers-hope we all have great success!!!

Surgery went great and I'm a little sore but feeling pretty good- went for a walk with my husband... Feeling very grateful for no complications this time, no need for an open procedure. What's weird is that my roommate just had surgery with the doctor that screwed up my surgery in 2007! Definitely will not mention that... Hoping surgery went well for all of you today!

Had mine yesterday and was in a lot of pain yesterday and had a lot of nausea but as soon as they got me on the nausea medicine my body balanced out and I did much better after about 2 hours.

I have gone for a walk to the bathroom and that's it I'm still hAving a little bit of pain but overall doing well

      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. 🤞
