Hi everyone. Just wondered how you were all doing. I am almost two weeks out and I have lost about a pound a day. Love looking at the scale every morning. I feel almost back to normal, but am still low energy and I get a little light headed sometimes. The Water is the easiest thing for me to do. The Protein shakes not so much. I just don't like them. I am getting the 30 grams of Protein that my surgeon's information says that I need during this two week liquid phase. It will be tougher though as the requirement goes up. Just curious. What is the best tasting, high protein thing that you all have found?

Congratulations on everyone sleeve in September. I'm 15days post op. I'm getting in Protein and fluids. Started purée today and it was challenging. Question- does any still have pain to their abdomen? Exercise? I sometimes feel like I should be doing more. I went walking and the following two days I was in extreme pain. Just curious

I have been doing great also. Haven't used any pain medicine for since the very first days, but oh boy am I in pain now. I was walking at lunch time and got a very sharp pain under my left breast. It feels like muscle or like something tore/came loose, I don't know. If I sit very still I am fine. It is only if I move funny I get this very sharp pulling type pain. It is near the largest of the laprascopic incisions that my surgeon said would bother me for a while. Is that what you were experiencing BPowell? I am 2 days away from 3 weeks post surgical. This pain has just really caught me off guard.

      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. 🤞
