Too tight and miserable...

Mimi - same here - they took .3 out of the 5.9 and now I can't stop eating! But yea better than barfing or choking on my own saliva at night - jeez that was messed up!

Seems that way! I go back on Jan 5 so just after the holidays my goal is to not gain back more than 2 lbs of the 10 I lost in the two weeks of the overfill. To be honest I would do it again if I had to get a boost on the weight loss. I dont' care if I am on liquids for a bit (problem is you lose muscle too). Also long as I'm not waiting up choking but that seemed better congtrolled by not eating or drinking anything 2-3 hours before bed (which i find hard to do).

When do you go back?

I had my first fill on 12/8-- since then anything I eat , comes right back up.. I just tried to eat ONE steamed sea scallop and am in pain (AGAIN).. Is this normal for almost 2 weeks post fill??? My doctor is in Texas ( 7 hours from here)

cruzlady - what was happening to me in the beginning was this was occurring from eating too fast. When you are eating take 30 seconds to chew and then when you swallow wait another 30 seconds before taking the next bite. Try that. I use either the stop watch on my iphone or one online (it keeps me honest) and today when i didn't already things were coming up).

      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.
