January 2017 Sleevers



Recommended Posts

I was sleeved on the 3rd and most of my gas "chest pressure" is gone. I did use gas x for a few days and it helped. Not sure how you are passing gas, but the past few days I've been full of it and I feel so much better getting it out. I know tmi!

Yeah I was like that till Sunday, then Monday I could tell that something seemed to be different but I continued to keep drinking just a few sips at a time. A little while ago I was like I'm going to see so I got a Protein shake and drank it and was able to get the whole thing down and nothing come back up and there was no pain.

I had my surgery Monday and Bf came home from happy hour tonight with pizza and I want to secretly sneak down there in the middle of the night and lick it so my hateful side can be all ha ha ha that's what you get for bringing pizza in my house. Please tell me I'm not alone on the weird ideas? LOL

My first post here after much lurking. Had my surgery January 10th, 2017. Here I sit with no stomach for the past 4 days and I feel surprisingly well and relatively pain free.

I am so grateful for what Aetna insurance and OHSU (Portland, Oregon) has done for me.

During pre op diet I chewed a few bites of pizza and spit them out. I just need the taste.

      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.
