    P.S. - opurity also makes a sublingual B12, and other supplements. Also, they do not use ANY ingredients from China.

    Is it ok to ask the doc to save the remains of my stomach and give it to me so I can make a wallet or a pair of slippers or something? Or would it be wrong?

    You might get a pair out of it. After all it is the stretchy part of the stomach they are removing. Or maybe you could use it to make haggis?

    Hi there,
    I am new to VST and just had my first consultation with the bariatric nurse on friday. I have a long way to go before i am scheduled for surgery but i am ready!
    I have struggled with my weight my whole life and i have come to a point where something has to be done. I have to lose 5% of my weight, (about 20 lbs) and keep it off, meet with a nutritionist, physical therapist, and psychologist for evaluation, then attend 5 behavior modification group sessions before i meet with the surgeon. Seems like a lot to do but it is worth it!
    I am doing all of this for a very important reason.... i want to be a mom. My husband and i just learned that IVF is the only option for us and my BMI needs to be 35 or lower for the best possible results for my age group. I am almost 40. At first i didn't think that would be a lot of weight until i googled a BMI chart and realized that to go from a BMI of 51 to 35 would be around 100lbs!!! So since it would be unlikely that i could get that weight off on my own in a year, i decided to look into the sleeve and i am glad that i did. Its worth putting off all the hormones and therapy in order to have a healthy pregnancy and child.
    So thankful that i found this forum! So much inspiration here!
