VLOGS! Do you have one, Duodenal Switchers?



Recommended Posts

Hi All, I am asking all the DS/MDS/SIPS folk who have video blogs or vlogs to post a link here. There are a lot of vertical sleeves coming up on youtube, but as you know, we have slightly different issues, smells, Vitamins, etc, to deal with. I would think, if you have a favorite vloger already, who isn't on this forum, you could link their page, too. Please only do Duodenal Switches, Modified DS or the SIPS on this thread.

follow this format, if you don't mind, so people can be picky, if they want, and watch the vlogs with the same procedures, but I would recommend watching everyones.

Name: DuodenalSwitchMan

Procedure: Duodenal Switch, but with 3 meter common channel, like a SIPS.

Surgery: Nov. 7, 2016

And, you. Yes, you, there. Vlogging is actually therapeutic. There is no gift like giving!!!

I don't have a lot on mine, since I'm just getting started, but here's a link:

There are a few more that I follow, I'll keep an eye on this thread and if I don't see them I'll share. Or you can look and see who I'm subscribed to.

I don't have a VLog; however, I do have a journal I kept for many years. It runs from 2005-2014.

Being in theatre, at some point, sharing.. not for fame or money, but for strength, empathy, knowledge and inslpiration, might bubble up enough that you do something with it....really fantastic projects to to do: 1. Publish it as a a pdf book file. 2. Read it and release it as an audio file. 2. Video record yourself reading it. 3. Have a college student perform it as a monologue live or just video someone else reading it. That is 11 years of invaluable emotions, feelings, and information to share!!! Just to put a bee in your bonnet, I would read it as an audio file, but it would be best if a woman read it, but I would do it: ).

Thank you!! Couraggio!

Mille grazie to those who have posted their VLOG links so far!!

Nice. I will vlog. Just trying to get the courage up. I have a question, though. Your sound quality is really good. Do you use some type of microphone?

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

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

    • 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
