@@Dejaalex You really need to increase your fluids even if you aren't hungry or feel like drinking. I'm sure this is why you don't feel well. Skip the Apple sauce (too many carbs) and have fluids. Try broth, tea, sugar free popsicles, crystal light, Water flavors with electrolytes. It doesn't have to be plain water. Hope you feel better soon.

Sleeved may 10th and today has been my hardest day. I can only get down 4 ounces of a Protein shake and I'm stuffed for the day. Idk what to do anymore, I sip on Water and Powerade zero throughout the day but I don't know how to reach anywhere near my Protein goals

I was sleeved 5/10 and am down 15 lbs (start 200); I am getting Protein in by shakes, adding unflavored Protein Powder into sugar free Jello, and also adding it to cream Soup. I've been getting 60 or right at it that way. I have had bad diarrhea for two days and horrible gas....other than that I feel pretty great!

You could sip Isopure for Protein Brittany

I've heard of Vitamin B12 shots but have never gotten one. Sound I ask my Dr about that?

@@Sharont Have you tried different temps of fluids to see if that helps. Try broth, sugar free popsicles, sugar free Jello, add flavors to your water.Congrats on the loss so far!

Thx KristenLe for the suggestions. I will try those.

I was sleeved May 11th. I can get my fluids and Protein in but really just had some creamed Soup today. I do not like Isopure but it is so high in Protein so I mix it with Raspberry Ice to mask the taste.

I was sleeved on May 9th. During pre op diet I lost 10lbs, and since surgery I lost another 9. The scale has been reading the same weight for the last 4 days though, it's getting frustrating. I'm doing my best to get in all my Water and Protein, but I've only hit my Protein goal 100% two days so far. I keep on trying!

      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. 🤞
