VSG Regrets?

Just wondering if anyone has or has had regrets getting VSG? I'm scheduled to have VSG in 2 weeks and I am so excited but also want to hear if anyone wished they hadn't done it and why? Thanks!

  • I am 7 months out and yes there are some negatives like today pulling out clothing that use to be a tad tight but wearable trying them on thinking they'd fit great now only to have the shirt and short

I Love hearing all of the replies, the good, the bad and the ugly. I have yet to hear anyone say they completely regret it. I am 6 days out, very tired - not a lot of energy at all. But I think that it's temporary. Keep the feedback coming!

It's been pretty easy for me. I don't regret it one bit. If I don't lose another pound (even though I hope I do) I won't regret it. I feel so good about myself and I do things I never could before!!

It has been 14 mos for me. I settled in a few lbs more than I want, but I look good. I feel pretty good, but not perfect. If I did it again I would see first why SO MUCH of my stomach would need to be taken. If anything I regret not trying something a little less drastic like taking half my stomach or 65%. I worry long-term that I'll be 80 and not able to eat or eat as well as at least can now. It would be less hassle if I had a little more room there.

But that said, if I didn't have the surgery I'd be miserable and unhealthy too......always regretted losing so much of my stomach though. This is really restrictive and sometimes hard to get enough food down even when it is great food. I think time will prove this surgery was a bit drastic on the size front.
