Recommended Posts

i am feeling pretty good! I unfortunately struggle from a lot of anxiety that revolves around health. So i have been anxious about a few things that i thought could go wrong. But i am doing well all things considered. i am sure in about a month when i am in the grind i will be doing much better anxiety wise!
working on getting those fluids in and walking lots! I got very close to hitting my 64oz yesterday!
incision pain is minimal only notice it when i bend/twist!
overall good still feeling a little run down and tired but with the lack of calories and Protein that is to be expected!
Im excited for you! you will have to let me know how everything goes!
I deff will I am scared but I am sure I will be fine..

So exciting! Remember Labor Day, just before my RuN on September 5th. I was so excited I almost vibrated off the walls. It was a life change, a lifestyle change, and I still after 12 weeks haven't got things perfect. But I am trying and believe I will smooth out the bumps and twists in my personal journey. Keep your 💓💓peaceful, don't be scared of anything. We search , seek and find the best surgeon for,our own case, now the preparations are nearly over. Trust in your team, believe in yourself, in some ways your prejourney,is drawing to a close, but in others the hard work is now starting. You will,have a new bright shining tool, now make it WORK for you. And GOD bless 🙏and keep you on surgery day. If you need to talk more you can always find ME or another Bari- Pal on here!

I just had the VSG surgery yesterday and I must say I am impressed by the lack of pain I am having. I just knew I would be crying non top but the pain is very durable. It feels like I have done a million crunches and I have a lot of gas but walking has really helped! So far I am only able to hold down 2oz of Water and one popsicle and hour but my doctor said that is normal for the 1st couple of days. I’m glad I made this decision hopefully all my other 11/26ers are doing great as well!!

I got it!!!!! Just got out of hospital a couple hours ago. Pain after I woke up was pretty bad since the whole opioids blocker thing but that passed and nausea was an issue but got that under control last night. I was so worried they would find some reason I couldn't get the surgery but everything went well! I got some gnarly scars but it's not like I didn't already have a marked up belly, and a small price to pay. I am so happy I still can't believe it's real. Thankyou for the support guys I really am greatful for y'all

      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. 🤞
