CStoned reacted to Ignatius in Guys who started over 400 lbs.Hi,
I'm new to the forums and in the starting stages of obtaining a VSG. Just looking to see if there are any other men who were above 400 (or even close to 500) pounds before starting this journey and how life after surgery has been. Did you suffer any complications from surgery due to your size? Did your doctor make you do anything extra or warn you of any possible issues? Did you lose more rapidly than average patients? Did you lose any motivation when you had lost enough weight to lead a fairly "normal" life, even though you might still have a good amount of excess weight?
A little background...I'm 31, 5'10", and honestly can't bear how difficult my weight has made my life. Just this weekend my wife went alone to her sister's engagement dinner at a restaurant due to my fear the chairs wouldn't be supportive enough. (I typically avoid restaurant situations unless there's a booth with a table I can adjust, ideally half booth/half chairs.) I've avoided flying for a couple years, will only attend theatre or sporting events where I can be guaranteed an aisle seat, etc. It seems like in the last 60 or so pounds many social situations involving sitting have escalated from very uncomfortable to more or less unbearable. Healthwise, I have hypertension and am very likely will be diagnosed with sleep apnea once the results of my sleep study last week come in.
Look forward to hearing from any of you have started in similar situations.

CStoned reacted to Aquarian1220 in Guys who started over 400 lbs.Hey guys. Just a quick note to let you all know that this morning I weighed in at 299 pounds! Another milestone achieved!
I've really been enjoying reading everyone's successes and am praying for those that don't see the light just yet. You'll get there!

CStoned reacted to halftheman.co.za in Guys who started over 400 lbs.I started at 609lbs. Loss to date is 319lbs. I was relatively healthy apart from the sleep apnea. And mobility problems. Post surgery I am the best version of myself I have ever been. I had no complications whatsoever.
