Any August 2017 Sleevers?



Recommended Posts

Surgery was yesterday & I am feeling pretty good! No buyers remorse, like I have heard sometimes happens to people in the beginning. Hope it continues to progress smoothly for all the August people!

incase this helps anyone....

I had my sleeve done this week on Tuesday 1st Aug.

I got out of hospital late afternoon on Wednesday and travelled by car 4 hours home. Wednesday was hell - I was in a lot of pain and struggling to drink.

Thursday, totally different - no pain killers. Had a sleep late morning for a couple of hours and then did 4 hours office work on the laptop. Drinking was managable

Friday / Today - I got a lift in to work at 10.30am and a lift home again at 4.30pm. I'll start driving again on Monday. Drinking is no problem and no pain killers. I feel pretty much normal.

Mine is scheduled for August 16! I keep going back and forth between being really nervous and really excited! Just can't wait to be done with surgery and recovery and start this new journey! I am trying to get into a workout routine now.

Wow!! I hope mine goes as awesome as yours has, so far! Best of luck for a continued quick recovery! :)

Hi,

just got sleeved on the 2nd. So far so good. Been getting liquids in per schedule 1oz every 15 minutes. I'm alternating Premier Protein shakes with Protein2O Water. It's really good, found out about it on these forums. The coconut pineapple flavor really is yummy. Been walking as much as possible to work the gas out. Felt like the blueberry girl from Willy Wonka yesterday. Felt a tad nauseous today, took antinausea pills and am better now. Walked 2000 steps yesterday, thinking about 2500 today. Have been napping off and on last couple of days. Happy it's done! Looking forward to what's next. Sending happy thoughts to all recent sleevers and lots of encouragement to those waiting. It's going to be an interesting ride!

Hi everyone. I just had my gastric sleeve surgery yesterday. I'm home now and I'm having trouble with drinking my Water and Protein intake too I'm getting full quickly. Has anyone else experienced that after surgery. How long did it last for you? I'm afraid of failing. Please help!!!

      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. 🤞
