August Calendar for August Sleevers



Recommended Posts

I was sleeved August 18! I lost 24 lbs pre-surgey and have lost 16 since my operation. How am I doing?!

Also, I don't know how to get the fun charts to show up under my responses =(

I don't think someone else can say how you are doing based on pounds lost from time of surgery. We are all going to lose at such different rates.

16 pounds (plus 24) sounds amazing to me. I just try to remember how much of a struggle it has been my whole life to lose even a few pounds and keep it off, and I'm going to Celebrate every pound!

Sleeved Aug 20. Down 16 pounds. The scale has been stuck for days at the same weight. I felt great up until about 5 days ago. A strange and intense pain started in my left side about 2 inches left of my belly button. It's been keeping me pretty much seated for the last 3 days. Anyone else experiencing this?

I feel you! I finally feel like there is a light at the end of the tunnel. I'm trying to keep the most positive attitude I can. I told my surgeon I'm determined to be his best patient haha. I got my period the second week and gained 5 lbs back and was really upset ... Then I decided I'm only going to weigh myself once a week. The pounds will come off if I stick to the program, so I'm trying to stop putting so much weight in the scale (pun intended! hah)

I made my husband hide the scale! I get it back tomorrow morning for my first post-op weigh in. I'm going to do my very best to weigh once a week as well.

My date was 8/18. The past week has been the best I have felt.

I was 8/18 as well and I agree with you! Finally feel like I can take bigger gulps of Water, I have more confidence in trying newer foods, too. I've been scared about that haha.

      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. 🤞
