Any February Sleevers?



Recommended Posts

I have my 1 week post op appointment later today. Thankfully! I'm hungry and don't really feel all the restriction other ppl have talked about. Doing well with my diet though. Happy to be on full liquids, which includes cream Soups so hopefully the doctor will tell me the rest of this is normal.



Isopure makes an unflavored one as well as genepro

Hi All! I was sleeved on Valentines Day. I’m home and doing well but the clear liquid diet is so hard. I just want a cracker lol! I have my follow up on Wednesday so hopefully I can move to the puréed diet and get the rest of my staples out. I have a really red rash on my abdomen. I’ve been taking Benadryl and Benadryl cream. Anyone know why this might be? Meds maybe? It itches so bad...

Embrace the suck and know that this is a time when you're burning the most and eating the least!

Do you want a theory or in my case a testimony? I am allergic to Hibiclens, the red liquid in the aqua bottle they give you to scrub with before surgery. Found that out before my last knee surgery,when my whole left leg looked like it was sunburned. When I have my Rny I don't know how they'll prep me, Maybe paint me with Betadine or something else. Oh Dr Miller's a smart dude, I'm sure he'll figure it all out.

Are you sure you're not allergic to Betadine? Many are. Do you have an iodine sensitivity?

Let me know if you find one I would love to have an unflavored Protein.< br />

I'm using Life Balance Pure Egg White Protein. Here is a link with some reviews, but I buy it at Trader Joe's for about $8 I think https://www.amazon.com/Life-Balance-Pure-Eggwhite-Protein/dp/B01J4ET1B6

I read that a lot of the other unflavored Proteins like Isopure, has a taste many don't like. And GENEPRO is controversial, and makes some dubious claims. The Life Balance isn't flavorless, it tastes like egg whites, so pretty neutral. It also doesn't mix well unless it's blended. But it's not a big deal to me to stick it in the Ninja with whatever I want to add it to

      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. 🤞
