Less Than 48Hrs Till Sleeve



Recommended Posts

Well hello! I am getting so excited and nervous about my vsg on Monday!! Any words of advice, what your surgical experience was like, or encouraging support welcome. Looking forward to meeting some nice friends on here. BTW, who are they kidding with this pre-surgical Fluid diet?!? If I could just do this, I wouldn't need the surgery! Already missing food...

My sleeve was done last month. The surgery was not too bad. There will be some discomfort but you will have pain meds to combat it. You can also given IV meds for nausea if you experience it. You will be feeling better in just a few days. I actually went back to work exactly one week after my surgery. I wish you the best of luck! Don't worry...you'll do fine and, trust me, you will loose weight!

Good Luck!!

I agree that the pre-op diet just sucks!! It makes me think about food more than I should. I keep thinking I'm never going to eat again!! (I'm on my 5th day)

Anyhooooo-Monday is almost here & I wish you the best!

Just remember to follow your Drs instructions about post op "eating" it's important to your healing and recovery. It may seem like it'll take forever, but you will get to eat real food again. It's worth the wait

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
