Thanks to everyone who responded!

To those asking... I misspoke. I meant Sleever's Remorse, basically like buyer's remorse, ie. thoughts like "why did I do this?" I am saying I do NOT feel this way.

I'm not being negative, just honest. Some people want an honest account of what it will feel like directly out of surgery. I'm on day 2 and I'm saying it's pretty rough. I haven't ever had any medical complications or surgery before, thankfully, so for me, this recovery has been the worst I ever felt physically. It should be getting better soon though! I can feel the gas pain slowly become less intense, which is such good news.

Will be following this thread! My surgery is on 2/14, I'm on day 2 of my "liver-shrinking" pre-op diet, which isn't very difficult (Protein shakes for Breakfast and lunch, broth for Snacks, and awesomely, I get to have a real, low-carb dinner).
One big reason why I'm interested in your story is because you're male—it’s no secret that guys seem to be in the minority here on BariatricPal, and in the WLS community in general, so I'm always looking for other dudes’ experiences since the nuances can sometimes be different than those of our sister sleevers!

I'm officially post-op! I'm writing this at the end of my first day in hospital. It's been a day full of frustrating gas pain, moderate nausea, and some incision pain, but meds help with that. (I opt out of nausea meds because it only lasts five minutes at a time.)

That being said, I have not experienced the so-called "Sleever's Regret" — not once! In fact, I'm actually planning my vsg anniversary trip to Disneyland in 2018!

I hope I can pass gas tomorrow because it hurts something AWFUL! Other than that, I'm still very happy with my decision and look forward to all the new adventures.

Don't worry, he's highly credentialed and an esteemed member of his community.

Wish me luck!
