Update: Thank you so much for all your love and prayers it's meant so much to me . Things are very cloudy among the days inside what seemed like a on and off nap . I did after 2 days start to tolerate liquids and got to go home but returned in less than 24hrs for severe dehydration . The pain pills and just swallowing any substance was difficult. So that was a total of 10 days in the hospital. Continuous fluids all the time . I had to have a midline iv put into my shoulder because my veins became flat. There came a point were i aware and felt like there was something wrong because I had no desire to eat or drink but felt sick. So I began slowly to the extreme dripping liquids then tiny sips etc. Broths lots of Water and Protein inside of my Water every day is a constant struggle but I believe it is normal at this point. Although I am in a full liquid diet which allows things like mashed potatoes and puréed types of foods my stomach does not like it .I have tried very bland eggs I've tried eggs in every form(but fried) and my stomach just does not like eggs ..it's weird...but my brain does ..lol.I've decided to just continue with focusing on my Protein and water and trying low-calorie watery consistency types of foods. I Do vomits every other day I feel like things are getting better daily. For me piling in so many pills as well as protein in different forms liquid etc. and as well as trying to drink enough water it is very filling and a daily struggle.

        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!

      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
