6 days ago I had my gastric sleeve done, I also had a hiatal hernia repair. I haven't been drinking a lot, not only because I'm not hungry but because thinking of certain things makes me feel sick. Can any one relate? Also, I am sooooo over this stomach gurgling!!!!

Yess! I'm definitely having food aversion for food I'm not even eating. The smell of certain things make me nauseas.. especially the smell of Protein drinks! [emoji13][emoji13] I'm three weeks out and my appetite is pretty much non existent now. I try to drink my two Protein Drinks a day and keep up my Water intake.. plus at least one meal of creamed soup... but I feel like it's way too much. It's literally a chore to eat now, I have to remind myself to drink something. It's really hard for me to keep up during the day with my liquids. I'm starting purees this week so maybe I will have more motivation to eat but I know it will probably still be difficult to get all my liquids in. The struggle is real lol.

      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.
