Hey June 5th Sleevers! How are you feeling? Are you ready for tomorrow?

Waiting for the Dr. To come get me.
I got sleeved on jun 5, worst pain & discomfort than my c-sections. First two nights at home had to sleep in recliner. But like all things this did past. By day 5, back to my bed & sleeping thru the night & without additional pain med. Today is one week post -op & feeling great. Down 25 lbs, with minimum of 75 to go. Very positive, saying everyday to myself, tomorrow will be better. I have no regrets as eating more than my body needed, put me in this position. I want to Eat to live, not live to eat. I will make better choices and I don't have to say no to anything, I just won't needs so much to fill me up. (Of course that's As soon as I'm eating solid foods again) I made this plan with myself, as all others seemed to fail, almost 9 months ago, researching everything. I am very happy to have the liquid diet & operation behind me. If you do this for you, because your worth it, you realized your not giving up anything, your getting your food problems behind you & now we can get on LIVING,

The easiest way I've found to get my Protein in is using 100% whey powder from GNC. They have great flavored currently I'm using chocolate/ Peanut Butter with 8oz of skim or 1%milk I do this twice a day as morning & mid afternoon snack giving me 48grams each time if I use one scoop &1/2 total calories 310/620 This way getting that out of the way you can look to other foods for the rest. Your stomach is so small don't need a lot of anything else.

      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. 🤞
