Hello everyone... I'm new on here. Literally an hour new.

I was sleeved April 1st. I'm 8 days out. I can answer questions from everything from Pre Op Diet to Surgery, Recovery and the Post Op liquid diet. I am just starting Full liquids today ( OK last night before bed ) .... I am certainly not an expert or a Doctor, but I have done it and would love to hear from people that are just now a week post op like me.

My surgery date was April 6th. When I got home I experienced horrible nausea but today I feel SO MUCH BETTER!!! I think it could've been my pain medicine on an empty stomach. So I started using one Tylenol.

I would love to join this group. I was sleeved on 4/4 and have told very few people and love that the group is secret. I sent you a friend request and email.

Thanks!

I'm doing good. Haven't yet been able to get 64oz of Water in yet. My tailbone is getting a little sore but other than that I'm good. How are you doing?

      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.
