How r u doing with it so far? @@Caycee

I was doing great till day 8. After a few days at home in excruciating pain I ended up in the hospital with a Pulmonary Embolism in my lung. I was actually released tonight.

It didn't stop me from continuing eating right or drinking but I did go into a bit of a "stall" because I wasn't allowed to move around.

Take it from me people, MOVE! Just when you think your done walking, walk some more. ????????????????

Geese so sorry that happened to you!!! Thank god you're ok....what did the symptoms feel like if you don't mind me asking

I woke up with a sharp aching pain in my shoulder. Later that day the pain started on my left side right under my ribs. It hurt when you would try to take a deep breath. If I got moving around and became winded it was almost like the wind was knocked out of me and I couldn't breathe.

      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. 🤞
