You look great. Keep up the good work. You look so much happier and younger.

Muscle weighs more than fat. I am of the overall opinion of size is more important than weight. Ive been 200 lbs before and wore a size 10. I was very much in shape back then. So don't be to discouraged.

At my heaviest I was 275-280. I looked at my son's graduation pics in 2011 and was horrified at what I saw. It wasn't just the size I looked unhealthy and not really happy. I had to think about things and put my life in prospective. I was on 4 bp meds and knees aching. I asked myself if I wanted to live to see future grandchildren and different accomplishments in both of my children lives and the answer way yes. I lost down to 247 on my own and knew I needed help and then I found Dr. David Steinburg and began my journey. I had my surgery 12/11/12 and as of today I am 195 lbs.

I lost 15 my first we. Ny doc said I was ahead of schedule. I try to workout daily. Remember slow and steady wins the race.

Walking is the best thing. Try to walk every 1/2 hour or hour if you can. It helps a lot.

I went through the same thing. I meet people who had the sleeve and the results went what the expected and were going over to the the VGS. That made my decision a little easier. I've lost 50 lbs so far and I had my surgery 3 months ago.
