I had my sleeve as well on Feb 9. I am currently still in the hospital on Sat Feb 13. I have suffered severe nausea and dry heaves all through out the days. Today I feel good ate almost all my cream of chicken and pudding. Got all my skim milk down. Am excited for Dr to come in so I can finally go home

OMG, Skittle!!! I’m so sorry you have had such a rough go of things! I really hope you can go home today. So glad you are feeling better this morning. Take it slowly and I know you’ll be feeling great soon. Please keep me updated on how you’re doing.💕

Hey there! I’ve been reading posts for a few weeks and thank you all for info, advise, etc... I was sleeved on Tuesday, Feb 9th. I also had a hiatal hernia repair. I ended up having a tough time with nausea and staying 3 nights at the hospital. My surgeon reminded me several times this week- be patient - everybody responds and heals at their own pace so my body just needed a few days before it was ready to calm down and allow me to sip and keep it down ;) I am so thankful to be home with my husband and kids — even sleeping in a recliner in the living room last night hands down beat the bed at hospital. It was very very hard to get any sleep there. Just getting good a nights sleep at home last night alone, I feel like a new person :)

The hiatal hernia seems to be a common repair for us! Good advice from your surgeon. Glad you’re home and doing better.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
