Marcia I had an acute heart attack 1.5 years ago and my insurance approved my WLS. They want to make sure your heart can tolerate the surgery. You should be ok

I did today. Clearance for anything as long as I'm not hurting. Day 6!

All I can do is V8 and cream Soups. I have another two weeks until I get cream of wheat. Lucky dude!

It kind of blows me away to see the wide variety of pre- and post-op food plans that different doctors/systems require. I'm doing it the Kaiser way, which seemed really restrictive until I hear your story!

Hey, it's me. Surgery October 5th. I found it to be much more painful than I expected. But finally feeling better. Started walking. I am on Clear Liquids and shakes still. I am not getting 64 ounces fluids in yet but getting 70gm of protein.i am a bit constipated hopefully the walking will help. I haven't gotten on the scale yet and probably won't until Dr appointment next week. I am afraid I won't have lost anything cause nothing else has worked. I know that it's not logical. How about all of you. Have you lost and how much since surgery?

Welcome @Ragedddy.

I was sleeved 10/7.

I am following a 0-3 day clear liquid and now 4-14 day all liquid diet.< /p>

On surgery day, I was 196.

Today I am 189.

YMMV.

      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.
