Sleeved August 8th, 2016



Recommended Posts

I was sleeved on Aug 8th, the first 3 days were really hard with the gas pain and nausea...my upper back and shoulders were hurting so bad... I walked and walked and actually have full relief this morning! The nausea went away on day 4. I feel like this was the best decision now... Big tip from me..... you have to train your brain that you can not swallow as much as you did before at one time it will hurt! I have lost 10 lbs in this first week... Looking forward to life without restrictions due to being super sized.

SW: 275

TBC.....

I was sleeved on the 9th. My first two days at home went just fine, then as you said, I started taking bigger drinks. I got no sleep last night due to gas pain. Today I am back to little sips.

My bad days were in the hospital! Ugh. Home is healing, I was so happy to get home!

I was sleeved on the 10th. I was sipping so slowly I just wasn't getting in all my fluids. Yesterday I made an effort to get my Protein in. Its so weird, I use to like my Protein shakes, but so much is a turn off now. I'm still not getting get near enough fluids and Proteins. Today I will try harder, but I can tell I'm drinking still sips, but a tad quicker together. I've felt a little pressure but nothing too bad.

Me too... I ended up getting the already bottled ones by premier Protein... I like the consistency better then the powder. In see not getting the recommended fluids... We are 3 In a row ... 8th, 9th, and 10th. Lol

      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. 🤞
