I had my sleeve done Wednesday and had several complications and even cried today because of them and the fact I can't meet my Fluid intake goals. The first 24hrs I was only able to 5-6oz, then Friday and Saturday only about 8 now Sunday I forced myself to get 30oz, which should be 48oz by now. I got so depressed and then one of the incisions hurt so bad, I began to regret it. But I pray it only gets better and easier with time.

@esmi2015 mine was 3 months ago. The worst for me was pretty op diet. It was really hard to do the 2 week liquid diet. SURGERY was not bad a r all. I can't eat alot but it's a new way of eating. Just eat slow and you get filled. Hw250 Sw239 Cw 187

I bet it was rough after not ever having a limit on what we eat and I include myself because i know I'm gonna struggle when the time comes. Is that your #?

My surgery was 11/3/15. I finally cried last night over not being able to binge on junk food like my hubby was haha! I don't even like the Cookies he was eating! I realized how silly I was being, reminded myself that I've lost 20lbs and remembered where binge eating junk food has got me. Other than that this whole 2 weeks has been very smooth sailing for me. I haven't had any regret. Surgery was textbook, pain was minimal, I easily met Fluid and Protein goals by day 2, I was only sick the 1st day in the hospital. It has all been a breeze for me (so far). Everyone is different, your experience will be too ☺ Best of luck!

I will be honest. I had my sleeve done June 20, 2015. The first month, especially the first week after surgery, I thought to Myself, WHAT DID I DO!?!? This is HORRIBLE!!! I'm starving!!! Total regret! But after that month, when you can start eating again, I started feeling better and better. Down 51lbs since surgery and I have ZERO regrets. TOTALLY WORTH IT!

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
