I'm going to get my VSG soon...I'd love to get some "Top 3" lists from all you success stories here on most critical secrets to success. Perhaps they could be something beyond eat less and exercise more! hehe

Of course if you have more than 3, go for it!

1. Start exercising now. It doesn't have to be training for a marathon, but start walking and lifting small weights as soon as you can. You're building the habit into your daily routine, not training

I just wanted to emphasize the exercise pre-op. I got up to 45 minutes on the elliptical and had some pretty good endurance. I truly believe this aided in my recovery. The day of surgery I was in

I'd say avoiding the Cheetos (and all other slider foods) should be at the top of the list!!!! LOL!!! I'd also like to add: Don't compare your results to anyone else....you'll drive yourself nuts!!

Work out BEFORE SURGERY. START NOW. Then after, once your DR. says ok...you will already be ready...it will already be a part of your life. You will lose muscle (which is ok because you don't need all that muscle since you won't weight as much) but you don't want to lose too much. Your protein supplements may not be enough so you have to make sure you are building and maintaining as much muscle as you can through excersize. I had a HUGE BUTT. Didn't work out...It is GONE! I MEAN GONE. I am a flat pancake...DO YOU WANT TO BE A FLAT PANCAKE This is my biggest regret.
