Hello all! My name is Jerusha, I am 25 and I weigh 273.5 pounds. I have been over weight all my life and now I want to do something about it. I have tried all sorts of exercises and affordable diet plans. Recently I have come to realize that working out causes me chest pains. It is something I have never experienced before and it scares me. So I have been researching my options and decided VGS is my best bet. My primary physician approves. She was actually way too excited to tell me to go for it in my last visit, lol. I am anemic and pre diabetic. Diabetes, breast cancer, high blood pressure and a few other things run in my family on my mother's side. Father's side I do not know about which makes it that much scarier. I have my first consultation this Thursday with Dr. Sadek of NJ. Im excited and scared, but most of all I'm ready for change.
I found this site through research. I have spent a lot of time looking up sites,videos, blogs, and everything else I can look at! I'd love to hear from you guys!!! :rolleyes:
