Chiming in late to this thread.... My Sleeve was done on the 13th. Please add me to the list. So far so good. I've shared a few of the same problems, but only mildly so. I have my 3 week check in tomorrow. We'll see how all is going then. I'm still in search of my goto protein....

Cheers to the whole group!!

I think my almost 2 week stall has finally ended! Pre op-229

SW (3/3)-220.1

1 month-209

Today-208.5

It's been slow coming off but I know without my sleeve, it would be miserable and 20.5 pounds heavier!

Glad the scale moved. We all need to trust it will work & not let our emotions get away.

Hi everyone! I'm new here. I Had my lap band removed and revised to sleeve on March 6th. Surgery date I weighed 245 and yesterday was my one month post op date and I weighed-in at 225!!! I was told that often people who go from band to sleeve don't lose much weight, but I will see! .. So far I'm very pleased with my progress.

I had revision also but I believe we will all get what we put into this journey. We are each writing our own story.

I'm on purée stage but I'm finding it hard to consume a full serving (3 oz) and that makes if really hard to track my nutritional intake. Anyone else ?????

my surgeon limits me to 1/4 cup of any food, must work, I've never been nauseous or in pain. I plan to stay 1/4 cup until I reach goal ;)

Usually depends on what I am eating. I was allowed scrambled eggs on pureed and I could only stand a couple bites. But then if I was eating, say, Tomato Soup, I could definitely get in 3oz or so.

For me, I eat until I am full, and that's it. Even if it is only two bites. I'm not going to force down 3oz and be uncomfortable just because a piece of paper says so :P.

Well said, I could easily eat more than 1/4 cup but I won't

I found that the scrambled eggs that I once used to love now give me a bad case of the back- door trots lol

I was so afraid I would not be able to eat them. I really have not had any issues with foods...so far

      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.
