    Thank You All! / When was your VSG Date

    Sleeved 12/17/2017. Pre op liquid diet was terrible and I was miserable for a Month post op but I am very happy I had the surgery. I can't handle booze any more which is quite an adjustment but it's worth it. Good luck!
  3. What a wild ride. Hit my goal 10 Months post op. Hands down the best decision I have ever made for my health. I feel 20 years younger! I hope everyone is doing well

    I was 45. Very happy with my decision to go through with it. Best of luck to you!

    I feel like I blew it

    Don’t worry. You will be fine. I drink 5 nights a week on average (starting 3 Months post op) and never stopped losing weight. I eat a bit more than I used to but not much

    I don't think I'm ready ):

    I understand what you are going through and everyone has a different experience but for me, my only regret is that I waited until I was 44 to do it. Yes, there is a lifestyle change but it may not have to be as drastic as you think. About 6 Month post op, I started drinking alcohol again, carrfeine, carbonated beverages. The biggest challenge is just learning to adapt to the new way your body tolerates your intake. Best of luck to you!

    I Want a Cheese Enchilada.

    Definitely will be able to. The Sausage King of Chicago is right.....it’s all about portion control. Best of luck!
  12. Trust me when I tell you the initial discomfort will pass. The first Month Post op, I was beyond miserable but now I have more energy than I did when I was 18 Years old.

    40 something sleevers?

    Best decision ever. I wish I would have done it 10 years ago!

    40 something sleevers?

    Great point! I have been saying that I should have done this 10 Years ago but at 34, I don't think I would have had the maturity or dedication to truly change my lifestyle. Best of luck to you!
