    What made you decide to have VSG?

    Hi, i am a 51 year old female who just had surgery on this past Friday, March 7, 2014. My son and I were both obese. We went to a seminar together and within months of that my son had scheduled his surgery and was ready to move forward. That was in Oct. 2012 and he has done tremendously well, losing 120 lbs. I have diabetes, hypothyroid disease, high blood pressure, asthma and fibromyalgia. I was tired of losing my breath from walking up my stairs to bed.Tired of looking at pictures of me looking like a Blow Fish, and tired of all of the medicines for all that ails me. I was kept overnight for 2 nights after my surgery due to not being able to keep my liquids down. However, since I have been home I am much better. Tomorrow I start my next phase and look forward to the Protein shakes and Soups. I cannot wait to see the end results. I know that this decision has changed my life and given me an opportunity to truly LIVE again. I look forward to my plane ride next month where I won';t need an extension for the seat belt. Btw, my surgery was done by Dr. Nicholas Bertha of the N.,J. Bariatric Institute in Morristown, N.J. He is the best there is and his staff is like an extended family to their patients. I am sooooo HAPPY!
