Getting Sleeved February 15



Recommended Posts

It has been a long road but, I am finally getting sleeved. I was scheduled for April 20th of last year but a family tragedy the night before prevented me from going through with it. ( I did a two week liquid diet too!) I am starting my SECOND liquid diet Wednesday and am looking for anyone that wants to stay in touch during the journey.

Hey Justin, my name is Mario. How are you feeling about the surgery coming up in a few weeks?

I still haven't had my sleeve done yet but I am thinking either late Feb / early March is when I get it done. Still waiting on a date.

We can keep in touch during your journey. I, too, am looking for sleevers that are going through this soon.

Good luck with your pre-op diet and keep us posted :)

The best advice I can offer is don't dread the journey, continuously focus on your vision of the new you. I tell myself that the positive is I am in my current situation because of many years of neglect and, it can all be rectified in a much shorter time.

Hey guys, I'm set for the sleeve on Valentine's Day 2/14. Just started my liver-shrinking diet. I'm excited and nervous!

Any of you keeping track of your weight and nutrition on MyFitnessPal? Would be awesome to keep track of our progress that way!

      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. 🤞
