  1. Hello, I'll be getting VSG in a couple of months and I am 100% nervous about saggy skin. My Aunt had the gastric and she doesn't have TOO much saggy skin just the arms. She has two children and was 39 approaching 40 when she got it. I'm 29 no children and my skin is very tight..even weighing 280 so I carry it well. But I am over weight for my height of 5'5 anywho...I wanted to know if anyone used firming lotions(palmers nevia) or did anything BEFOR to try to supress the saggy skin. I plan to do mucho weight lifting etc to help out after but any feedback will be great.
  2. Oh that's great, I've heard he is the BEST! No I don't have my date yet but I'm 2 checks (on my pre-op checklist) away from meeting with him and getting my date-. I have a close friend who went to him and she was pleased-
  3. Newbie to the site, I have started my pre-op process on getting the sleeve and I am totally excited.I've completed my blood work today. I attended my seminar on 2/16, ..4/11 first nutritional seminar...4/19 met with pcp..4/23 had medical and history @ surgeons office at that Appt she gave me the list all the things I must complete and my check list is short 4items!! I still have to get my pshychological evaluation which is the only thing I must come out of pocket for thus far-:/..I scheduled my ultrasound for May 3rd and then I have my first one on one with the nutristionist on May8th...so everything is going well. I just pray I don't have alot of skin after and that I can have it way before my 30th BDAY which is in Nov! Aiming for July-August!! Any tips and or advice I am open too!! **Smooches** XOX
