May Sleevers...where are you?



Recommended Posts

@@CandyCrushVSG I don't know of a may sleevers group as of yet. We could make one, I guess! I'm on VSG Support Group on Facebook, everyone on there has been awesome so far.

How are everyone's countdowns going? I picked up the last of my Protein shake and Vitamin supplies yesterday. Pre-admission appt in 3 weeks, liquid diet starting in 4 weeks, surgery in 41 days and counting!! :lol: :rolleyes: :blink: :P

Im in that one too! And I am seriously stoked to get my Vitamins and Protein how strange it works out!!

I will go ahead and make one for just May so we can have a smaller one to relate too more!! :) PM me anyone who wants to join I am going to make it secret!! :P

Hi. I'm new. This is my first "real" post. I am a nurse and YES I am going to Mexico to have my surgery. After months and months of research, I chose Dr. Ortiz at OCC. I am very excited and nervous! This site has been extremely helpful. I admire everyone's honesty and willingness to support each other.

Hi all,

I just stumbled across this website. I'm scheduled for surgery 5/27/15. I was originally scheduled on April 1st, but I changed the date because of all the upcoming activities in May (my daughter's college graduation, my birthday and Mother's Day). So, decided I wanted to be completely healed for everything. I actually wish I had gone with my original plan - less time to stress and worry. I'm very nervous, yet excited. So thankful I found this website. It has a lot of valuable information.

Hi. I am new here and been reading all the posts. My surgery is May 29th and I'm just looking for other people going through it too. Can I join your Facebook group? I would be interested in helping be admins or do you just want people that have been here a long time?

Hi better-half! We are scheduled the same day with the same Dr!! I'm getting pretty excited as it gets closer! Did you get your instructions yet from our nutritionist? I have to lose 11 pounds pre surgery, little nervous about that. I have 6 pounds still to lose , hope I can get it done !!

      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. 🤞
