My surgery date is coming



Recommended Posts

Definitely possible to stall early. I’m 2 weeks post op and weighed myself this morning. Same weight as last week. Bummed but I also now have actual food in my system and while not constipated, things aren’t regular yet. I’m going to try to fit in more walking and just keep at it! 😃

I'm starting to get a little discouraged. How's it possible to gain weight if all you're doing is drinking liquids?

I'm drinking a 20 oz. Isopure passionfruit Protein Drink with 0 carbs, 40 grams Protein and 160 cal. It's an acquired taste.

I am doing good. I weighed yesterday and I had gained and then weighed today and it went back down to where I was couple days ago. But I am not going to get discouraged. I am just gonna keep on doing the program. I have not had a bowel movement in like three days but I don’t really feel like I need to. I have been using the Miralax once a day. I need to get more Protein in for sure been trying to get all my Water in. I went to Walmart to buy my premier shakes and they were completely out.

Sams has the premier shakes. Sometimes Kroger’s does too.
I didn’t even think about Kroger

Yeah my scale was going up and down so I decided not to weigh myself anymore. Some of my clothes fit better so that's a good thing.

      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.
