So tomorrow I go in for the d switch! Super nervous but really excited to see where life takes me now! I did my magnesium citrate tonight which by the way was completely awful!! I've had nothing but Water and Protein water for 3 days I'm pretty cleared out I think lol so now I have an upset stomach but don't know if it's bc I'm nervous or the drink !

I've had that Magnesium citrate, tastes like a slightly more tangy barium swallow. Yuck.

Dr Roberts ? I've really LOVED the whole staff at his office! Today is day 5 and each day I'm less sore. Although I'll be honest getting the Protein Water in has be EXTREMELY hard it's so tart tasting that it hurts when it goes down. But like I said it's getting easier everyday to drink more and more water tomorrow I get to start back on my Vitamins and Protein Shakes so I think that will really help me with not feeling so weak.!! Keep me posted on when your surgery day is !!

Hi girls. I too am having the DS on the 5th of June 2017 and super excited! I have to admit I'm a little scared of the DS. I know several people personally who have had the RNY and sleeve but I know Noone who has had the DS. How is it going? Any complications? Going to share a little much now... since having my gall bladder removed several years ago I do not have a solid bm and I have heard that with the DS this is extremely worse.... I really don't want to have to use depends forever......have you heard or experienced 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.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
