I had no pain in the largest incision (the tummy out incision) and had my surgery 11/15. Well today out of no where while at work, I'm a sales rep on my feet all day, I felt a bit of pain. Now, its progressed to a full blown tugging, stabbing pain anytime I stand up and walk. Even after surgery I was sore but I didn' have actual pain. Did I possibly over extend? Or pulled something? I'm kinda freaking out. Thanks in advanced?

Was it your first day back ? Did anything happen when it hurt or just random ?

How bad is the pain ?

Maybe give your Dr a call just to make sure all is okay. I'm sure it is- perhaps you just overdid it today. But better to be safe by chatting to him/her

Tuesday is my surgery date November 28th. They didn't tell me I had to be on all liquids tomorrow but I think I should. Did anyone else go on just liquid before surgery


I wasn't told to go on liquids either. I was worried too cause it seemed in forums that everyone else was on fluids before surgery. I just did 3 opti shakes the day before - just in case haha. Good luck tomorrow!

I had my surgery on the 16th and had the exact same pain yesterday and I have a office job mostly sitting. I didn’t take time off and went to work 2 days after the surgery, needless to say I stayed home today and the pain has subsided.

I was sleeved 11/8 and I won't be cleared (hopefully) until 11/29 for puree foods. Then I am on that 3-4 weeks before soft foods. Then 3-4 weeks before slowly introducing regular foods. So about 3 months or so out, I will be able to start regular foods. Seems all surgeons and programs are different.


I was sleeved on the 8th nov too [emoji1326]. I'm on mushies now...at 4wks (next wed) I see my surgeon and dietician and will hopefully start normal food around 4-6wks. Seems all dr's are different. Think it's really individual too- like how we are tolerating food. I miss chewing so much [emoji23][emoji23] but so happy with the weight loss so far. How are you going with yours? It's almost summer over here in Australia and I'm struggling big time with getting enough fluids. So thirsty!!!!!!

      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.
