Recommended Posts

I know a lot of us (like me) struggle with the hydrating thing and I thought I would post and ask. I am a big believer that Water with the sleeve is a dynamic duo tool for WLS. I am not a computer savvy person so I think just posting this thread will make people look for their water....

Right now I'm up to about 48 ounces since I crawled out of bed (it's 1:50p where I'm at and I got up at 5:30a). Some of it Water, some a skinny latte, and 2 servings of Protein shake made with skim milk. More Water to come and probably about 16 oz. of SF iced tea and an additional 8 oz. +/- SF strawberry lemonade.

I keep a water bottle next to me everywhere I go. In fact, I panic if I realize it's not there and immediately stop in the nearest store to pick up something to drink. Whether it's Decaf coffee, Powerade, bai Water, Vitamin water, Protein smoothie, plain water or herbal tea, I am drinking all day. Yesterday I got in at least 85oz, not counting the French onion Soup I had for dinner. Had over 100oz the day before while out horseback riding. I now fill my My saddle bags with water instead of beer.

      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.
