Congrats. I'm having my surgery Dec 19, and to be honest I'm scared to the point of second guessing my decision. I know everyone responds differently but would you mind sharing your feelings once you got out of surgery and how you felt the first 24 hours. Thank you.

Hi - So I was sleeved this past Friday and stayed overnight. The night wasn't bad, but the drugs they game me really knocked me out. friday I remember them giving me tiny little cups of Water, I kept it down....onto Bari2 which was broth and Jello, tiny little bites and slow is the key. Saturday I was still a bit groggy, did well with pain. started on bari3 - instant Breakfast drink 4oz and will remain on Bari 3 for two weeks, alternating every hour between 4oz instant Breakfast, 4oz clear liquid. Now it is Sunday, last night was terrible in my own bed, but did sleep some. Today I want to just be vertical as much as I can.

In regards to second guessing - I was dealing with this for the past two years. But then I found this program I am in now and it is wonderful. Very supportive.I know I made the right decision. I am looking forward to working out without pain, walking without pain, and running around with my four year old. Hope this helps! Good luck with everything!!!

Thank you for your reply. I was originally scheduled for Bypass but my surgeon stated I could have either procedure. I like the concept of vertical sleeve more than the bypass but I'm a bit nervous that my surgeon does far more bypasses than sleeves. I have heard great comments about my surgeon and his group, just worried he does not do VSG more often.

Good luck to you, it seems like your off to a great start

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

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

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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
