Day 2 post op the PA advanced my diet to full liquid so since Friday afternoon I've been able to have a little more then just clears, like pudding and I tried some very watery cream of wheat but mostly I've been drinking flavored water, Decaf tea and Popsicles

Thank you Izzy, i am day 6 today and not suppose to move to full liquids until wed, but feeling weak like i need more. May give drinkable yogurt a try, and very thin cream of wheat, cream Soup just for calories. I'm down 7 lbs since surgery, that's a lot in 6 days.

Tomorrow it is for me! Scared, still undecided. All I am scared of the pains. I have read that everyone has horrible gas pains and I am very worried about the post op recovery. My mind is still playing tricks with me and saying I do not need it. I try to convince myself that if I had to loose weight I would have lost it since February as I have been very diligent in exercising and keeping a track of what I eat. But no such thing happened. I have been able to lose only 15 pounds since I started this process. I have been on full liquids since Wednesday October 12th and believe me even I am shocked that I have not lost any weight. So maybe it is God telling me that it is time. I don't know I'm very confused and scared. Prayers will be appreciated.

      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. 🤞
