does anyone else have a very noisey stomach. mine sounds like a witches culdren bubling away when ever I take a drink move anything.
Yesterday was really bad I thought it could be "dumping syndrom" but now I'm thinking it could be the gas they used to inflate my body moving around.
I want to go for a walk but am a bit concerned about not being close to the bath room.
Any thoughts / surgestions gratfully recieved

I did the first few weeks but it has simmered down. If I try new foods that don't sit well, it can bubble up again.

A high fever sounds like more than just needing Water. That's indicative of infection. How are your incisions?

I called my dr he told me to take liquid Tylenol. I think my incisions are ok ? My fever is down and I feel better today , but that was scary.

OMG today has been the best day so far I feel great and look forward to feeling even better.

I've been out most of the afternoon bought a couple of t shirts one size smaller, been walking around pain free.

Almost bought a naughty snack then realised I don't do that anymore.

It was the best feeling ever food does not rule my life.

Remembering it's a battle of the mind is the most important. I am three weeks out, but still have one consciously make the right decisions

Tommorow will be one week out and I too can take large sips . I am not having any issues getting Water down ? All liquids go down very easy , I can drink a liter of water in 15 min . I starting to get a little worried.




As far as I hear... we're good. Swelling must be down. but i was advised to take it slow.. water is way more easier than Protein to get down especially ice cold water!

      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.
