I had mine done on May 5th. I 'm doing much better then I thought would. Im staying focused on Fluid intake.

I need to learn to go slow. I'm very happy I had this done. I had so many doubts and have never experienced that kind of stress before. This is only my 5th day but its already easier then last week.

Surgery was successful. Only have some mild incisional pain. The drinking post op is hard. I fell like I could drink a gallon of iced Water because my mouth is so dry but they will only let me have 30 ml and hour. Overall successful so far!

Hi everyone...just joined this forum today. I had my sleeve done on Tuesday, May 6. Looking forward to connecting with you all and embarking on this journey.

Note: Post-op has been WAY BETTER than I expected. I'm amazed at myself each and every day. :)

Be proud...be strong...be ready to start life over again. :)

I was May 9th and I'm feeling great 6 days post op, there is tenderness in my side but no pain meds needed, I'm really starting to embrace this new lifestyle knowing that the ultimate reward will be beyond tremendous.

Home now from the hospital. Everything went fine. The doctor said my liver looked perfect. I walked the unit every couple hours and haven't had any gas pains. Starting these Vitamins are hard. There are so many and trying to sip sip sip is a struggle. I can honestly say I have absolutely no hunger as of now.

      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. 🤞
