First Day of my VSG Journey!

Good Morning!

Well today is the first day of my journey to VSG.

I met my surgeon this morning, got a really good feeling from him, and everyone in the office actually. I'm excited about this, have a good support system, and only 6 short month ahead of me til "It's ON!"

Looking forward to leaning more and meeting more folks here!

    Welcome to the group. As others will tell you it goes by quick. I started all this in June or July and got sleeved on Monday. All day Monday I kept saying I couldn't believe the day has finally come.

    Good luck to you and there is a lot of great information on this forum. Of course listen to your dr and use this as reference ;-)

    I'm 23 days away from changing my life forever too. I still wont believe it until I see it happen. I cant wait to wear a cute dress this summer and swim in the ocean on our family vacation and not feel completely mortified. I cant wait for my teenage kids not To be worried about my health and for my incredible husband to have the wife back that he deserves. Good lucck to u.... us! We deserve it!
