Any June 2018 Sleevers in Here?!



Recommended Posts

Waiting for my date! Everything went through to insurance on the 1st and they said I’ll know this week when my surgery date is! Which should be 4-6 weeks since it was submitted so I’m hoping for a June date

My problem right now is that I e been so busy with house buying ad land preparations that I’ve fallen off the wagon in regards to eating well. During my six months of medical weight loss, I’ve done incredibly well and even lost 39 pounds. I don’t need anyone to shove food down my throat. I’m currently having trouble with eating properly all on my own! 🙁

I hope you are doing ok now that you are post-op. Or stats are similar, and I'm also from Texas, so we can follow each other.

Hi everyone, I had the sleeve done on June 6th. Procedure went great! I’m doing my walking in the house. I’m very sore but nothing too bad. I just feel kind of bruised inside. Sneezing and coughing hurt. They gave me a lot of drugs. Two being pain meds. I feel the high dose ibuprofen works better than anything. It’s hard to keep to the three ounces of liquid at a time. Makes it hard to get all the pills down. I’m just glad it’s over with but I feel it’s totally worth it!! Good luck to all of you for your surgeries!!😁

Tomorrow is my day! First case of the morning. I’m excited, nervous, scared. So very emotional. I’ve been crying off and on all day. I’m ready but I don’t know how to feel. My life is changing tomorrow.

How are you feeling? I took advantage of ALL the pain relief for the first 72 hours after surgery really made a difference for me. I haven’t needed anything since, but it was great skipping the argh I’ve been hit my a truck phase.

IntergalacticGal, I am in the same boat. Tomorrow I am the first case of the day. I have been down with a Headache all day that I have decided is just from being anxious. I know that this the best thing for both of us and we will be so much better for it. Good luck and keep me posted on how you are doing.

How are you feeling? Take what you need to recover and welcome to the other side

I feel pretty good. I haven’t been hungry at all. Just thirsty. The nausea and gas pain is the worse part. Other than that, I’m ok.

Surgery went well, I was up and moving just a few hours after. I wasn't sure I was going to be able to come home yesterday because I was having so much nausea and was not able to get in enough fluids. After changing my nausea med I was doing much better and able to come home about 6pm last night. I am doing so much better today. Still taking the pain med about every 4 hrs but I don't think that will be much longer. I am ready for this next chapter of my life.

I was sleeved 6/1. First two days were miserable - really was wondering what the heck I did to myself! But feeling better, tolerating full liquids, walking 10k steps/day, no hunger pangs or intense cravings, pain basically gone, and losing weight rapidly!

      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.
