I haven't used this forum in forever. But wanted to check in. I ended up having my VSG surgery on 11/21/16 I was 298.6 at my first consult 4/11/16, 265.8 the morning of surgery and as of today 3 days from being 9 months post op I'm at 175!! I'm in a size 12 pant from a 24W and in either a women's L shirt or juniors XL down from a 3X! I am off all my BP meds, have tons more energy and just overall really happy I had my surgery. My new tool has been amazing. Sent from my Z981 using BariatricPal mobile app

Hi y'all. My name is Summer. I'm a 32 yr old married mama of 4 that is just starting my VSG journey. I have spent the last year with my primary trying to loose weight and lower my BP with very little luck so she referred me to Texas Bariatric in Rockwall and I have my first consultation on April 11th. I have struggled with my weight for 22 years. I was always 50+ lbs over weight as a kid with being 160 lbs in 6th grade. At 24 two years after my 1st son was born I was at my highest weight of 398 lbs and wearing size 26/28 pant and 4X top. I was at home with a 2 yr old and a deployed husband and basically didn't eat for the 15 months he was gone and lost weight getting down to 225 lbs. Within a few weeks of him returning I got pregnant with baby #2 and then had #3 & #4 all within 4 yrs. I have tries every diet out there, joined a gym, worked out 1 to 2 hrs a day 5 times a week and I loose 20-30 lbs only to gain it right back and sit where I am at every time. I currently have back issues, high BP/hypertension, sleep issues, migraines and knee issues. I am really excited to start this new journey, get healthy, loose this weight and be there for my kids.

Hi everyone. I am just starting my journey and have my first consultation on April 11th with Dr Stephens at Tx Bariatrics. I am really excited and just wondered if anyone else has used that clinic. Also I have BCBS ppo through my husband's job (KCS railroad) and I have worked with my primary for 1 yr already trying to loose weight. Anyone know what the weight time usually is between consultation & surgery? Sent from my Z970 using the BariatricPal App
