I am on loser side now

Congrats~ Glad you are doing okay. Walk as much as you can; it will help the soreness by reducing the gas in your mid-section. If you need pain medication, take it, as pain can actually slow healing.

Wishing you all the best!

I got a pain button and I can dose every 6 min. As of now it just hurts below my rib cage and back. I am in disbelief that I finally got it, I am so happy I feel like crying but that would hurt to much lol

Oh btw, if you are having gas pain, I heard that gas-x melting strips are awesome.

Hi Bobby, i hope you are doing well. I also had my surgery on Tuesday at around 8:30am. As of right now i feel good, except for some mid section discomfort, but that will pass.

Keep up the good work!...best wishes for your recovery!

Congrats!!! I am only 5 months out and it has changed my life. Listen to your doc and follow his/her instructions and you will have some great days ahead of you! The next months will not be easy but everyday gets easier and the journey is well worth it.

      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. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
