I had my sleeve done on 3-11. Just remember walk walk walk. The more you walk the gas pains will leave you. So far I’ve lost 26 lbs in 2 weeks!! Oh btw I only had 2 days of Pre op liquids too....I don’t think I could’ve went longer than that. Lol. Good luck on your journeys!!

I’m surprised by the amount of pain. I just got home from the hospital and am really looking forward to the gas pain leaving.

Just got home as well. Yeah have gas pains and I can’t seem to really get stuff without having the burps. Other than that I am fine but this is really annoying

I am still burping too. I’ve heard from others that will go away around the 3rd month. I hope so cause you’re right it’s annoying. The 3rd day I thought I was having a heart attack because of the gas pain I was having. I just walked and walked as much as I could. By the 4th day it was gone.

I was advised to take gas-x. I’m not sure about beano. I would assume it would but not sure.

I have to admit, I’m having a hard time getting my Protein in. Doing my walking and sip sip sip. I still have gas pains in my forearms, of all places. So weird. Hope everyone else is rocking and rolling.

I had trouble getting my Protein Shake in too the first week. Just listen to your body and strive to get as much in as you can. It will get easier.

      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.
