Well just off to do a 10 hour night shift on a hospital switchboard. That is the worst thing about my job,i get to work all over Christmas but whilst everyone else is stuffing their faces tomorrow i will be in bed.

I wish you all the best for xmas and the new year and for those yet to have your surgery stop worrying as there is nothing to fear.Pippinleicester

London here. 5 weeks post op and so happy I did this! Am at soft food stage but ate very little on Christmas Day & yesterday due to GERD and the slimes. Was on soy Protein shakes but found them a little heavy.

I tend to drink a lot of milky Decaf coffee with soya milk and smoothies with Greek yoghurt.

Happy to connect with UK based sleevers. Has anyone been able to get logged in to the Owlss group?

How are all the UK sleevers doing? It's been very quiet on this forum. I'm now 7 months post-op and over 6 and 1/2 stones lighter with absolutely no regrets!!!!

      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.
