  3. Congrats!!You must be thrilled since there’s a substantial difference!!! Wonderful!!! I had the sleeve ... had wanted RNY but surgeon made an executive decision when he had me on the table to do the sleeve because of scar tissue. Glad to see that the sleeve is working out so well for you! Ps.... how do we post pics? I’m still learning this app!!

  5. 8/2/19 here.. .. the first 2 days were the most painful due to gas pain.. not at the insicion site or even my new sleeve.. re gas moving from side to side was the worst.. that being said once you burp it all or fartvit all it's been a good 6 days..
    3rd day out we shopped Costco
    4th days out we shopped at sams club and 5th day out I took my brother in law to the shooting range.. just make sure you hydrate

  6. How are you feeling at this point? I might be sleeved in a month and I'm starting to get scared. How is the recovery process going for you?
    I just got sleeved 8/2/19
    I walked in on Friday morning and was sleeved by noon... The pain was crazy the first night.. it was a combination of gas pain and my stomach feeling twisted... Saturday was a breeze just gas pain and now it's the 5th and we have gone shopping at costco for our regular routine stuff.. the pain is gone but gas come from time to time...
    It's crazy that I haven't felt hungry since then..

  7. Almost 2 weeks since sleeve, my weight has been stuck for 3 days now. How can it not move when I am only getting 400 cal. a day?

    Your body is entering starvation mode.. once it recognises that you are on a low calorie diet and it able to run on the 400 cal.. you will see the pounds drop off

  9. Ok.... 10 days until my VSG and I am freaking out a little.
    my dr office has me on a Protein Shake only diet for two weeks and I totally cheated and had fries and some of a pita today- I knew what I was doing but just did it anyway. 🤦🏼‍♀️

    I was so excited when I got my surgery date that I actually did a modified version of this diet for two weeks before I had to( my office has different plans based on BMI so I followed the plan for the BMI above mine)- doing shakes during the day, low carb dinner and I did great- lost 10 lbs.
    I haven’t lost anything this week
    I don’t know why I cheated today- and now I am so scared that I won’t have the discipline after surgery.

    This is such a big deal, it’s costing a lot of money and because its “elective” I just feel so much pressure that people will judge me if things go wrong... and of course even more if I mess up the weight loss.

    this Surgery is something I have been weighing for almost 10 years and I know I will be so glad a year from now. I have been so excited but now I am a bundle of nerves.

    Anyone else go through this?
    Yes I hear you.. I got my date months ago and I did a strict Breakfast shake and lunch shake and small dinner.. but now that I have less than 1 week I pigged out 3 days.. sun.mon.tuesday.. now strict shakes and boom I get sleeved in 12 hours

  10. Tuesday I had my Pre-admitting appointment where I will be having my surgery and when they handed me my folder of information for surgery day with the soap and the breathing device, made everything more real. Can’t believe I only have 2 weeks and 2 days till Surgery Day!! I will be having my Pre-op Office visit with my surgeon on the 12th (anyone know what happens at the pre-op office visits?).
    I know the next two weeks will be going by fast .
    They pretty much they ask you if you have any questions.. they tell you who will be attending the surgery with your doctor..
    Blood test and they tell you what you can and can't do a week before your date...
    I just had my pre-op 7-30-2019
    I go under 8-2-19
