I experienced some discomforts but nowhere as near the pain that I've heard people talk about on here. When I felt uncomfortable, I would take a quick walk and that seemed to work just fine. Sent from my SM-N950U using BariatricPal mobile app

No, my surgery was at 8am and I was out before noon. They let me wake up and rest for a little. Not sure how long my surgery lasted. Sent from my SM-N950U using BariatricPal mobile app

I had outpatient VSG. I hate hospitals, therefore it worked out great for me. They just made sure I could walk on my own and used the bathroom before discharging me. Sent from my SM-N950U using BariatricPal mobile app

My sleeve was an outpatient. I thought they were crazy, but everything turned out well. I ended up staying in the facility for 2 hours. They wanted to make sure I could walk and used the restroom before leaving. You'll be fine. Best of luck! Sent from my SM-N950U using BariatricPal mobile app

Has anyone looked into skin removal surgery covered by insurance? I have FepBlue and am hoping they will approve me for at least a panniculectomy? Sent from my SM-N950U using BariatricPal mobile app

No, maybe I wasn't clear enough. You are correct, people do lose at different rates, however, everyone can set their own personal goal of the weight they would like to lose by Memorial day. The challenge is just to offer each other some encouragement along the way. Sent from my SM-N950U using BariatricPal mobile app

Hi everyone, I was wondering if anyone would like to do a weight loss challenge that would run until May 25? I'm not the most organized person, so someone would have to get things together. Anyone up for the challenge? Sent from my SM-N950U using BariatricPal mobile app

All is well. I had to adjust my carb intake also and like you I started seeing results right away. I'm down 65lbs, hoping to lose another 50lbs. Sent from my SM-N950U using BariatricPal mobile app

When you are 30 or 40 years old, trust me you will wish you had done it sooner. I'm 36 and wish I had done it way sooner. Get your head on straight and do what's best for you. Sent from my SM-N950U using BariatricPal mobile app
