Hi Rosie! I had my sleeve done on Tuesday also! A little traumatic for me too. They couldn’t get a vein (blew 4 before they got a line in with the help of an anesthesiologist and ultrasound machine to find a vein), I started crying because it also got bumped up by about 45 minutes. Overall the pain is slowly receding and I only take the pain meds about twice a day.

Sorry for the rough start, I swear it gets better and the surgery day will be an after thought. Just remember to stay on course with meeting your Protein / fluid goals. and don't forget to walk, walk, walk.

Congrats! I had mine a week before you and also had a horrible ordeal but it will get better. I promise promise. I’m 10 days out today and I am really feeling better. I kept in the front of my mind: “this too shall pass” and “I didn’t come this far to fall apart.” YOU WILL BE VICTOOOOORIOUS!

      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.
