Any March Sleevers?



Recommended Posts

FINALLY approved! I got a big packet from my surgeons office with post op diet info, but pre-op just says "only Clear Liquids the day before surgery". Does that mean I don't have a pre-op diet?? I'm not complaining, just confused lol.

Side note: February sleevers had a Facebook group. Would anyone be interested in a private group like that?

Hi I'm booked for March 21st not sure if my post has been seen as it's my first time..I'm having mine done in Luton n dunstable has anyone else had their surgery done there x







Not in Luton but getting mine down privately in East london / Essex area. I'm having mine exactly 1 week before too.

Have you had a pre op diet from your surgeon.
Got mine on Friday. It's pretty tame. Had the option to do liquids or low carb food. And only for 10-14 days before the operation.

Decided I'm going to try and learn a bit more about nutrition over this period, so that when I do eat again I'm only taking in food that's beneficial to my body. Really want to use this operation as a reset in my way of thinking about food.

Sorry for ramble

Private or even secret Facebook group would be awesome.

Hi evie I'm getting excited yet nervous ..I previously had wls 33 years ago I had 20yrs of being my goal weight. Since then was severely malnourished and my weight continued to rise. And lots of problems I'm having a reversal of original surgery and a sleeve to replace. They no longer do the type of surgery I originally had. I havnt rcvd my previous op diet yet they said it would be a 10 day one too. And choice of low carb or liquid diet..doesn't sound to bad aye hun :D like you it's a good way of rethinking what your eating x

      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. 🤞
