Wow @sleevesia and here I am complaining about wanting something to eat. I am sorry you're such problems. I had a lot of neck and shoulder pain about 4 days post op but it was definitely gas and it didn't go away for about 2 days. Lets just hope that whatever is happening is only temporary and the worst part is already behind you. Take care and I hope you feel better soon! I will f/u to check on you and if possible, try to get your Protein, Water and Vitamins down. Good Luck.

I had my staples removed today and I am so glad because they were hurting. So now I just have 8 more days of thin liquids and then I can begin Soups with the all the fixings (the meat and the vegetables). Yay!

I suggest the Isopure drinks as they can count as both Protein (a whopping 40 grams for each one) and fluids (20 ounces) they have all sorts and today I am having coconut. They are clear like Water. I also added clear beef broth and unflavored Protein powder to cream of mushroom Soup and thinned with Water last night and strained the mushroom chunks out and it was tasty. Had about 2-3 ounces. I am 2 days out of surgery. Has finally is moving also. Still taking the pain meds though.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

    • buildabetteranna

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
