A group of us last month started a private Facebook group for June-July-August sleevers. We closed the group after 50 people so we would be able to stay small enough to keep it personal. After us another group started and I believe they did the same. So you guys may want to think about starting a private fb group for you all to stay in touch and support each other. I love my fb group and we have phone numbers in our phones so our family members will text someone in the group to let everyone else know their surgery went well and they then communicate it to the rest of the group. I really love our private group so I am suggesting you guys think about doing the same. Best of luck!

How can I get into the group? I've looked for it on Facebook and don't see anything with that name.

That's my date too! I wish it was sooner I just want to get it over with and start losing this weight. I'm tired of my 3 year rubbing my belly asking if there's a baby in there lol

As far as I know you just type this in the search bar "JULY 2016 SLEEVERS" and it should come up? You can also try this: july2016sleevers@groups.facebook.com or this https://www.facebook.com/groups/july2016sleevers/

Thank you I just joined

I'm currently waiting on approval from the insurance company, then I start the liquid diet, so I'm looking at sometime early July!

      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.
