March 2nd sleevers



Recommended Posts

@@stackinstones11 I hope you are feeling better! Sounds like you've had a little bit of a rough start but you're weight loss is great! Congrats!

@@newmeme Happy sergiversary! 16 pounds is awesome! My post-op was today and it went well. It was a pretty quick appointment with the PA, just checked my incisions and talked about how I'm feeling. We went over what I can start incorporating into my diet and that was about it. My first 'meal' was some fat free refried black Beans with some blended up ground beef cooked with Tomato, onion, garlic with a bit of guacamole and cheese on top. That sounds like a lot but I made a pan and baked it all together then weighed myself 4 ounces. Looking at it was funny, I didn't think that would fill me up! At least that wouldn't fill me up before. I couldn't even eat it all but it was so yummy. I also had a couple ounces of cottage cheese today.

@@JamieLogical Thank you for the encouragement! I've heard of this dreaded stall and I'm not looking forward to it. I don't think I'm going to weigh myself because I know that will get me discouraged.

Hi. I too was sleeved on March 2nd. Also had my gallbladder removed at the same time. So far so good, minus this dizziness. Is anyone else suffering from this at this point?

@@Raincries Wow! You are indeed a trooper getting two surgeries in one.

I haven't experienced the dizzies, only nausea. Have you had your two weeks follow up yet? I had mine today and found out I may have to get periodically hydrated via IV. They also gave me powdered Vitamins to put in my Water that tastes like CrystalLight and helps with nausea. Maybe your docs can run tests and get to the bottom of it. Our bodies are adjusting big time, so anything can happen. Best of luck to you, keep in touch!

No nausea for me. My GP is very impressed. No pain either. Only pain I have endured is from my gallbladder incision. I see my moral GP every week until I see my surgeon for my follow up and then my Bariatric Doctor. I'm already taking my medications by mouth, and have been on chewable Multivitamins as well as liquid ones since the day I arrived home. I have been very lucky. And for that I'm thankful. My doc did say the dizies could be because my sugars could be fluctuating. Thankful I'm not diabetic. I guess we will see how things work out. Feel better. Nausea can sure take all the energy you have out of you, and as u know we don't have much at present. Be well!

      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. 🤞
