You won’t gain on the pre op. It’s designed to cut all sugars out of your body and shrink the liver. I am 11 days in and have lost 14 lbs so far. If anything it kickstarts the weight loss journey

I am 2wks post opp and I am loving the way I am feeling! Can’t believe all of the weight issues I was having are gone! I would absolutely do it again!

I'm a little month post op. I'm still on liquids because I haven't been getting my fluids. but it's still the best gift I've given myself

I went through the same feelings right before surgery. Although the majority of people who knew were very supportive, there were some negative people who had something bad to say about my decision. Like what everyone else is saying, I wish I would have done it sooner, but kept putting it off and thinking I can do without. My advice is to remember why you wanted to do it in the first place! Good luck to you on your weight loss journey!

I think they are jealous, and I bet one of them will be in your shoes in the future after seeing how great you’ve done!

Great job on your weight loss! I have a similar goal to where you are now, but I’m only about a week out from VSG. any tips you’d like to share? How has loose skin been for you? Thanks for any insight you are willing to offer!

I will be 2 years out this July. I can say through my ups and downs, I do NOT regret getting surgery. When you undergo any weight loss surgery, you are fighting. Fighting against excuses, bad habits, temptations, bad influences, and haters. It's not an easy battle but I know you can do it. Believe in yourself and believe in your success

I'm seven years post-op, lost almost 100 lbs, and I would do it again in a heartbeat. Until I was thin I never realized how much time and energy I spent thinking about food and about being fat. No more!
Dieting never got me to the healthy weight I am today. Do what's right for you, but make up your own mind. Why would your coworkers not want you get healthy as quickly as you can?

@ ChickenSoup, praying for a smooth surgery, quick healing and a wonderful future life. I hope to join you and AstroCat on the Bench of Victory in June. And I am so anxious for my own surgery I can almost taste it. 😛🚩😛

I'm only 10 days post op and although the first week was rough, I can tell I'm getting stronger day by day.
No regrets so far, but I do tend to have cravings if I'm not on top of my scheduled diet.
It's weird, I don't feel the hunger, but once I see or smell something appetizing, it's like I just want to taste it and maybe spit it out cause I know I can't swallow it.
Do they make Bacon flavored chewing gum?
That would be perfect lol

I was feeling so good about having the VSG until 2 weeks ago when a few coworkers bombarded me with their so called plan of intervention of why nots. Now i have anxiety and nervous and feel like cancelling my surgery in a few days on 5/10. If given the choice all over again would you still make the same choice?
