One week liquid diet! I got 2 weeks. I see some have no pre op diet. Such varying processes between Docs and Hospitals

My sleeve is scheduled August 12th. I was afraid the hospital was calling me to cancel, but it was scheduling my preop labs and COVID test. Feeling very nervous.

Oh God, I never thought of that, where are you, I’m in uk, so fingers crossed for all of us

Oh I pray not another lockdown, not looking like it here in London tbh, over here it’s mainly the teens and early 20 year old getting it, and they started giving the vaccine to the 16 year olds now

is it bad in Texas ?

I just want to get this op done and move on, popping all my Vitamins daily and purchased little pots to make Soup !!

I got 10 days low fat, all I want to do is eat sweets and I’m not a sweets person, ate a chewy sweet earlier and broke a tooth 🦷 so that will teach me, now a visit and expense of dentist !!

How are all the early August surgeries going!? I had mine aug it’s 4th and I’ve seen so many with similar dates. Hope everyone is doing well pre op and post op. I’m still in major pain 3 days after..one specific incision is hurting a lot, but I’ve finally starting taking in more Protein Shakes and some sherbet etc. lmk how you guys are doing !

august 2nd- I haven’t hit my Water intake yet since being home. I either hit my Protein or come very very close. Pain is ok… there’s a pulling in my stomach of course when I stand and do things. I have one incision that has been giving me heck since surgery (it’s the most painful and most tender but gets better by the day). It’s my largest one.
also does anyone experience a squeezing feeling? The squeezing is stronger in the middle of the night so I wake up and start sipping water.

Hi,

I am scheduled August 23, 2021 for gastric sleeve surgery.

I’m both scared and excited!

I had Lap Band surgery in 2009 and lost 80lbs. I felt great and I loved the way I looked.

A few months back I had the Lap Band removed and over the past several years I’ve put on 50lbs between not going to the gym during COVID-19 and the extra weight makes it difficult to get around.

However I was just reading the thread on what you are looking forward to most after your surgery and I must say I was very encouraged by what I read!

      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.
