  1. I felt the same way when I lost weight the first time around without surgery. I was shallow and thought I was better than any other woman out there at the time. And yes, I played guys like a fiddle. Over the years, my weight came back plus a hell of a lot more. That made me realize that when I had my surgery, I wouldn't do that. I guess that happens with age. I can't tell you to not enjoy yourself, because I did at the time.

  4. I didn't. But, this will be your new baby. The good news is, that you will have time to focus on your recovery instead of having to clean when you are still healing, which could take weeks. Good luck to you? That was supposed to be an exclamation point.
  5. Yes the stall is real. My first stall happened at 3 weeks as expected. Just stick with the plan. YOU GOT THIS!! Good luck.

  7. My goodness! Get well.
  8. I had my VSG 2/19/15. My first stall happened at three weeks as expected and it lasted two weeks. I hit my second stall in mid-April and it lasted a month! But, I stayed on plan and I literally dropped six pounds overnight.
