I will have my vsg surgery on dec the 11th. I’m nervous but also excited for this new journey in my life. I was wondering...... Was any of you guys recommended to buy a post op surgical compression garment?

How exciting for all of you! I had my surgery 12/30/16 and my life has changed for the better in so many amazing ways. I was right where you all are a year ago so I just wanted to pop in and offer my support and congrats.

Good luck to everyone this month! I was sleeved Nov. 29th, but I feel like I belong with you Decembers, if that is okay!

I'm 6 days post-op. Threw up all meds and everything but Water until day 4. Now I easily tolerate Protein Shakes and meds: I use Isopure zero carb with plain water. I hate Protein water and Jello so far, and beginning to hate popcicles!

I still can't tell when/if I'm hungry, full, have acid reflux, or what is going on in this belly of mine! Also, of all 4 incisions, the one near my belly button is the worst for pain!!

My head craves food so bad, right now i want a slice of cheese and bread! These pass and change all day, but are obviously easy to ignore since my stomach feels like it was hit by a car.

That's me so far in a nutshell! I look forward to meeting you all, and hearing about your progress as well!!♥️MM

      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.
