I'm out of surgery and everything went really well!

The gas pain is nooooo joke, but the pain from the surgery itself is minimal. Not up and walking around just yet but they said they'd get me up and moving a little later.

I can't believe I did it!!

Im am comforted by your news of your surgery gone well. I have my surgery on 12 14. i am on a pre liquid diet currently. It is close enough I can taste it. I am excited, nervous and scared to death at the same time. Your post has calmed my nerves for the moment at least. Congratulations!

Glad to hear that! I was VERY scared the last few days and had to do everything in my power not to back out. This morning I was anxious but once they brought me in to get prepped and got to talk to all of the nurses I felt much more at ease.

As long as I keep pressing my button for my pain meds I feel pretty great!

Good luck to you, it'll be here before you know it :)

Happy Belated Re-Birthday!

Thank you! Today I'm pretty nauseous, I think it may have to do with the fact that I haven't eaten or drank anything since Monday night. Really looking forward to sipping some Water in the morning! Pain is pretty minimal, my back hurts more from the hospital bed than anything!

Glad everything went well. I was sleeved on 11/20 and am doing much better now. Pain was minimal, but nausea kicked my butt for a solid week.

Good luck on your journey!!!

      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.
