I am so happy that you are doing well and that your husband accompanied you! I hope the rest of the family comes around with a quickness! 😊

It gets easier each day!

Thanks! The rest of the family has been slightly changing their tune because at this point it’s a done deal. It was so much unnecessary drama. Lol! I’m glad it’s over.

I felt the same way until I had more solid foods. What stage of food are you on? I’m on mushy food and feel much more satisfied and get full with them. (Beans, can chicken/tuna, sunny side eggs) I didn’t get the full feeling with blended Soups and Protein Shakes.

Well doctor told me go ahead and try when I want to try because I was doing so well and I had a little bit of clam chowder Friday night and I nibbled a little bit on a grilled cheese sandwich and it seem to be OK the rest the weekend as mostly on liquids and Protein Drink until today when I had some tuna patties and fried potatoes and it did not go well at all so tomorrow I am back on my Protein Shakes and sugar-free Jell-O

That is exactly what my doctor said too. I thought I was doing really good I start eaten a few things like clam chowder and I know Moore did on the grill cheese sandwich tonight I made tuna patties and fried potatoes and I found out solid food is not my friend right now so back to Protein Drinks good luck everyone

That stuff was probably too greasy. I haven't had greasy food because I would expect it not to sit well.

Thank you for all the well wishes. Here are few lessons I've learned:

1. Everyone's experience is different
2. No matter what anyone says it doesn't prepare you for what you actually feel
3. Walking does help
4. Don't wait too long to ask for pain medicine
5. Don't become dehydrated

I stayed in the hospital an extra night because of vomiting and pain. Each day does get better :)

      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.
