RIght after I had my sticture fixed, I felt great great again, I waited until next day to start fluids and everything went back to normal..... I am on soft foods again 15 days after the procedure... No big deal, but last night I had a pouch of tuna for the first time since WLS and it upset my stomach... It hurts ... I hope to feel better later today.....

Hi boliramirez.. how are you feeling.. ?

I am much much better, thanks for asking , I am been cautious of that I eat after I got the stricture fixed... And I just finished the two weeks of pureed foods that the doctor recommended after the procedure. I am off 44 pounds !!! If all it helped a lot to loose weight rather quickly !

That’s amazing!
I just checked my stats. I’m down 59 lbs since I started the program back in January 2017 and 43 lbs since surgery. I’m at the 2 month mark. Kind of remarkable

I also have gas pain still-gerring better, but it's there. I have the not hungry or full feeling as well.
Did anyone else gain weight? I started at 297. Got down to 284 pre-surgery. Came home yesterday at 295. 🙁

Your numbers are almost identical to mine..no worries, I am now 5 weeks post-op and CW is 262lbs and I lost not one pound on 2 weeks pureed foods.You will lose weight.

I’m 6 lbs. away from being my lowest teenage or adult weight ever, which makes me really happy but really sad too thinking about it because at the time I was in an extremely abusive relationship with a d**che who kept telling me how fat I was but he loved me despite this. Ah! So many good memories *insert sarcasm*

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got 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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
