Well, I can't believe it has been a month already! I must say this vsg thing is probably the best decision I have ever made. All my health problems (impending diabetes, sleep apnea) are gone! I kinda knew it would happen but not this fast. My doc says I have lost more than double what he had projected me to lose at 47 pounds in one month! The best part is that I feel like I am no longer ADDICTED to food. I still see friends or family eating all those delicous, greasy treats and I really miss pringles for some reason, hmmm. But I don't feel like I NEED food like i used too. In fact I am never hungry. The biggest part was seperating cravings from hunger which I was never able to do. Im like a giddy little girl when 4 teaspoons of tuna (smart balance mayo) fills me up, its so weird. I used to eat like 5 pork chops and mashed potatoes so this is a big change! The biggest thing I wanted to say is THANK YOU to my VSG family. You guys guided me through the ups, the uncertainty, the nervousness and the fear. I feel like I want to be a success not just for my family and my self but all of you. Now Im gonna figure out how to change that ticker. 47lbs!!!

PS; My pants fell down at work today. I think at the very least its time for a belt :blush5:

Congratulations! And thank you for the chuckle about your pants. Time to go shopping!
