I had my bypass surgery 5/3 and was discharched yesterday. It was my first surgery so I didnt know how my body would feel post opp. Day 1 was pain. Day 2 i felt like a balloon. Day 3 i was pain free.

I was discharged a day later than planned bc my blood pressure and heart rate were high night 2.. plus my intestines were slow waking up.

I still cant believe its done! No regrets so far. I havent needed my diabetes meds since surgery! And no hunger. sugar free cherry Jello taste sooo good now lol. I have no interest in regular food. Im just having trouble drinking enough fluids... i feel full fast.

My pre-op consult was pushed out to May 9th. Looking at a surgery the week of May 22nd, but won't know for sure until the 9th.
I was so disheartened this morning when I couldn't go to my consult today. I literal got ill from it. I ended up sleeping most of the afternoon, but I didn't turn to food. Now I have resigned myself to it and I am wondering who will be having sleeves then too.

I'm on my 3rd day of Protein Shakes. Day 1,2 had headaches. Luckily I'm allowed a meal once a day.

Hoping the days get better. I'm already down 3 1/2 lbs in the 2 days.

Good luck with your surgery!

      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. 🤞
