I don't even want to weigh myself before I get discouraged. I feel like 10lbs heavier

My stomach was definitely extended post-op. I could tell by my shirts. However, it did not last 7 weeks. it lasted about 7 days or so.

Did you try anything new to your diet that may have contributed?

Almost 3 weeks post op and my belly looks and is very bloated. The right side incision actually seems more tender. Feels like more gas has built up. My follow up appointment is tomorrow

Took mine 4 1/2 week for the swelling to go down and the pain to go away .

I am exactly ONE week post op. My Dr. talked to me about the swelling of the abdominal tissues due to the surgery´s trauma on the stomach. If it hurts, it may be something different... I am happy, WEIGHT IN.... I did and the larger belly is unlikely more extra pounds ;)

I'm 5.5 months out and continue to experience bloating and discomfort on right side. After several doctor visits (Including GI) and one trip to ER determined its due to ongoing issues with Constipation.< /p>

      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.
