I have to check in at the hospital at 530am and surgery is scheduled for 730am, gonna pack a hospital bag tomorrow and clean the house so when I come home I don’t feel terrible about not helping with kids and chores. My essentials will be toothbrush, robe, slippers, and comfy clothes, and lib balm. Oh also a lanyard... my surgeon makes us have a drain for a week and everyone says that hooking the drain to a lanyard helps with hands free.

Just checking in how did everyone do? I had GBS dec. 5th, and got to come home the next day! First day was very painful and now I’m feeling much better. Just walking and sipping.

I had mine done the 5th too! They required a 2 night stay which annoyed me but there wasn’t anything I could do about it so I just sucked it up. My worst day so far was yesterday, a small headache, lots of nausea and just plain felt crappy. Today is so much better! I was able to get in 40oz of Water in yesterday (after leaving the hospital at 1pm) and already at 30oz today so I’m happy that’s going well too!

I had mine done the 5th too. Was in one day..then back the next night because of severe dehydration and vomiting and nausea. He is keeping me in for 3 days checking on a bunch stuff. Today over the course of the day I drank my first liquids (the best salty chicken broth) Im pretty sure it came from a powder but it was amazing! Off liquid pain meds as they make me sick, but managing. Just keep moving forward, right?

I got my drain and staples taken out today one incision is alittle irritated no pus just red and draining fluids so they put me on some horse pills of antibiotics but then seem to be going down good so far. Life is 100% better with out those things! And on to full liquids. Cream Soup and cottage cheese never tasted so good!!

      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. 🤞
