Whoop! Whoop! Had my annual physical today & received a clean bill of health! Vita D a little low, bad cholesterol a little high, but she expects those to level out after the surgery. And she's very excited for me about the surgery & can't wait to see all the changes in me in a year. Yay, me!

Southernsleever- You are my hero!! My starting weight was 276, but I'm an inch shorter than you. I'm now a size 22 and to think I could be an 8 next year is blowing my mind! I can't wait to have my 10/11/12 procedure, join a gym and hire a trainer (told my husband a gym membership and pers. Trainer is what I want for Christmas!) Keep up the good work, you are the exact motivation us "newbies" to this whole crazy VSG thang!

Wow, I'm at the top of the list! Getting nervous, reading too much about complications-someone made a list of everyone who's had a problem-added up to around 50 people-yikes! But trying to stay positive - there are LOTS of people with NO complications. Good luck to all of us! I'll keep in touch from the losers bench! (got pre-op blood work done today). :-)

I'm Andy and from Indianapolis. I'm a RN in the NICU. I am getting sleeved my Dr. Evanson at St. Vincent Bariatric center October 4th!!! Very excited and can't wait for the next three weeks to fly!!!
