Hello guys!
I had surgery on may 21st. I had a follow up appointement today and asked my surgeon the bougie he used on me. He said he used a 60 bougie! OMG!!!!! That’s so big…right? I hear people talking about a 23 bougie. Im so sad…He also said that my stomach will be able to hold 9-10 oz. Is my stomach too big? Should I be worried that my weight loss wont be good?
Thanks!

Hey!
So i'm 1 month out and I just started solids yesterday. And I think my surgeon made a mistake and made my sleeve too big. To be honest I dont even feel like I have been sleeved... Yesterday, I was able to eat a medium piece of chicken, 2 asparagus and a little bit of mashed potatoes. I feel like I can eat more than people saying ''im full with 3 bites''. Is this normal? I never feel full
plz help, im freaking out

They say that after 6 years, lots of people develop acid reflux and 43% regained weight!

How many pounds have you guys lost? Did you maintain those? Do you guys know the stats of regain with VSG? I'm very scared of regain!!

Is it possible for the sleeve to stretch?

Hello,
My surgeon said that he is using a 36 to 40 bougie. I think this is too big. I have a friend that was sleeved by this surgeon and she gained most of her weight back.
What do you think?
-
Are you out there? Would you share your experience and surgeon?

WHat are you guys eating one year out? do you feel normal when eating out with friends?

Hello everyone,
I am 20 years old, 255 lbs and 5'1. I am obese but never had any health problems like high blood pressure, diabetes. I am lucky.
I am contemplating the idea to have a gastric sleeve but people keep telling i should try to lose the weight by my own first. But I am 100 pounds overweight and i'm pretty sure if i lose it I would gain it back.
Do you guys think i should have surgery or that I should wait?
Thanks!

Hey guys!
I know this is going to be a weird question...but i'm terrified that if I get the sleeve, i will have an emotional breakdown because of all the weight I would have lost....Like if would not feel like myself anymore....
I am scared of the ''what am i doing to myself'' feeling...
did this happen to you guys?

Hello
I just posted something about this but the more i do research, the more I am freaking out...I meat my surgeon today. I am 1.5 months out. He said that he used a 60 bougie on me, that my stomach shoul hold 9-10 oz and that he took off 75% of my stomach. the thing is, people keep telling me that because my sleeve is ''bigger'' i will regain a lot of weight 3-5 years out i cant beleive this. This cant be right. People say they used 60 bougies back in 2000...wtf.
i am so sad and confused.
My surgeon is the head of a renowned hospital in my city (canada) and he has done tons of sleeves!
please help me
