Day 3. Had a roughish morning. Had a sudden bang of nausea and awful gas. Just wanted to burp all the time. It was very painful but luckily a few meds sorted me and I slept awhile. Had my first shower. Was heaven!! Drunk cubitan now. Nice to have something a bit thicker than Water and more flavour. Looking forward to going home tomorrow

I’m scheduled January 16th, can’t wait!




Dr didn't require one I guess. I was told to do the Protein based part. And stay away from food we can no longer have. I'm doing the Rny 1/17/18. Almost time. [emoji27]

Me too. Am going into hospital tomorrow afternoon. Operation on Tuesday morning 16th. They will repair my hiatial hernia as well as do a vsg. And told me that since I've got sleep apnea, they might put me under observation in the intensive care for the night... I hope it won't be necessary. Am super nervous though I know it's the best decision I've made to do the vsg. Here's to us all! Xx

Lindsay, I hear that!!! I felt the same way. Im now 9 days post op. The pain gets less and less. I told everyone, if I could fast forward 2 weeks I would. Hang in there your feelings and pain is normal!!! XO

How are you feeling after the two weeks? What time of pain do you still have?

Why aren't you able to get all Protein in? Too full? Nauseous? I will be starting soft foods this coming week.

      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.
