Newbellina....VSG with Dr.Joya 7/10/09

Well, I've been overweight since I was 11. Then obese since 28...

Now I'm 37 and the highest weight I've ever been.

Did WW and lost 13 pounds..which came back because I have no willpower, self-control, etc.

I'm sorry..but I think vanity is a GOOD thing. If I'd had enough of it, I probably would have more self-control.

VSG is my last resort. Dr. tried to put me on diabetes meds (metformin), but I would rather just get FORCED to be healthy by removing the room that my tummy has.

This pre-op diet has been hellacious....but I know it will be worth it in the end...

I'm SO excited to find this forum! I needed a place like this :wink0:
