April Sleevers! Where are you at in your Journey?



Recommended Posts

I'm using Premier Protein shakes, Isopure zero carb ( in the glass bottle) and Cocotein (similar to Isopure but tastes a little better).

How much are you able to drink in one sitting as far as ounces go?

I'm able to get in between 10-15oz in one sitting (over probably 10-15 minutes). At first it was not easy to get that much in at all. But in the last couple of days I feel like the swelling has gone down a lot and it's easier to get more in.

I definitely feel like staying focused on drinking is going to be one of my struggles when I return to work. I'm usually not one to drink a bunch while at work... so I'm going to have to try to come up with a way to keep myself focused on it... because it seems that if you go too long without drinking it's really hard to catch up.

Sleeved 4/23, down 78 lbs! Feeling pretty good!

I am finding that when I lost weight slowly and was this weight I "felt" a lot thinner than I feel right now which is weird.

      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. 🤞
