So 5 days post op today no pain just still trying to get Water in having no issues with Protein Shakes, having sugar free popsicles and yogurt with no problems but I was never a big water drinker so its hard to even get 16 oz down I think I will never meet my 48 oz daily goal.

First post, now that I have my date in hand, I figured I'd sign up for future support!

Going in for my Gastric Sleeve on Jan 28th,

I start the pre-op diet on the 14th. Pre-op diet is 3-4 Protein Shakes and one 260-370 calorie meal depending on how many shakes I've had.

I'll be on the same pre-op diet, starting on the 13th...my surgery date is January 27th. I guess we should be thankful that we weren't put on the all-liquid diet, huh? I've heard several people put on all liquids...I'm sure we'll have plenty of time for that post-op!

Had my surgery Monday. After I left the recovery room, I felt like I could do cartwheels! I think I got a little cocky, because the second day was harder. Pain was never an issue, but I fought with nausea the whole second day. I couldn't keep anything down, but my doctor released me anyway because he said today would be much better. Thankfully he was right!

      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. 🤞
