Hey Guys,
Here are my stats:
Age: 22
Pre-op weight- 383lbs ( highest weight ever recorded)
Day of surgery (May 3rd 2013) after 1 week liquid diet- 373lbs.
July 25th 2013- 320lbs.
i can truthfully and honestly say that this surgery saved my life. Not to say that i couldn't have lost the weight alone, i just wouldn't have done as well. The journey hasn't been easy AT ALL however, it's been a learning process and its getting better and easier each and everyday. I am so happy that i had this surgery and forever grateful to my mom for believing in this and paying for surgery for me.
The pic i attached below is a side by side picture of me last November and of me today. I can't begin to tell you how embarrassed and ashamed i am for letting myself go so much that i didn't even notice how big i was and how horrendous i looked in that outfit. It's really hard to see and even harder to digest. All i can say is that i am NEVER going back there and it can only get better from here.
I feel like i'm already a VSG success story and i'm not even halfway there yet.
To those who watch youtube VSG videos, i've been recording my progress so if you're interested, you can watch my latest video:

Tes, i am very tall lol. I'm 6'1 so my weight distributed evenly.. I know that as i slim down, i'll look even better.

Congrats to you as well! you are almost there! you are going to be just fine and surgery will be a breeze. You are off to a great start and it will only get better from here. I wish you luck tomorrow and if you need tips or anything, let me know. I'll be more than glad to help.

I wanted to post a before and during pic of myself.
I had surgery 5/3/13 so i am 2 weeks post-op.
The before pic was taken before a wedding in late February of this year and the after pic was taken today after church. I've lost 30+ pounds within the past 3 1/2 weeks and though there isn't a big difference i can see i look much smaller. After doing the comparison i truly am so grateful i had the surgery.. I have good and bad days but if this is any indication on how i'm going to feel and look later on in my journey i'm most definitely in it to WIN IT!

Marie, I am scheduled for surgery this Friday coming with Dr. Ponce.. My coordinator is Debra from http://weightnomoreconsulting.com/ and let me tell you she is AWESOME! i am paying $5500 in total. Everytime i had a question or a concern i would call her and she would be very helpful every. single. time. Many people say great things about Trish who is another coordinator that Dr. Ponce uses but she never responded as fast as i would've liked so i went with Debra instead.

Good luck! everything will go well. i am currently 10 days post op and i'm feeling better and better everyday : )

That's the spirit!! i got on the scale this morning and i saw that i lost 4.5lbs even though i cheated. I started trying a bit more since Sunday so i'm not going to fall off the wagon now. Keep going Kell! have a good day. :-)

i mean scale.

update your ticker, girl! you're already on the road to success!!

3 more weeks for you yay! once i get back i'll get on here and give all of you all the dirty details lol.

Kelly!
Have you been following me around and watching me! i am in the SAME EXACT BOAT AS YOU! first and foremost we are sleeve sisters! i go in on Friday as well and i too have cheated almost everyday!. The first few days were terrible! to compensate for my terrible eating i've been drinking a ton of Water and i mean liters upon liters. I told myself i wouldn't eat until the surgery so starting today i had everything Protein ( 2 shakes and 2 Protein bars( i know i probably shouldn't have eaten that but i NEEDED to chew something.. anything)) and it wasn't as bad today.
I finished the box of Protein Bars so for the next three days i will have 3- 4 Protein Shakes a day and will try to consume about 3.5liters of Water. I'm praying to God this helps because i'm going to Mexico for my surgery and i would hate to have to reschedule or they do do the surgery and it doesn't go as smoothly because of my stickin' mouth!
Kelly WE CAN DO THIS! i will be praying for and keeping you in my thoughts for Friday. Don't give up, it ain't over just yet!
