I'm less than a month away and absolutely can't wait to start seeing some results. I'm a big guy - 6'3" and 490 pounds. You know it's officially time to have the VSG when you have sleep apnea, high blood pressure.. And the most embarrassing thing was going into the local big and tall store and not having a dress shirt that would fit me!!! I carry most of my weight around my stomach which is not good for a dress shirt.

Here's a few of the things I'm looking forward to

Lower my blood pressure

Get rid of sleep apnea

Live longer

Feel better

Go to sporting events, concerts and movies and be comfortable/fit in the seats

Fly on an airplane comfortably

Travel the world

Climb stairs without being winded

Buy clothes at normals stores for normal prices

Take on new career opportunities

Get a relationship, get busy more often.

Look better

Things will only get better from here! Good luck to you:)

Yay good luck to you!

You are on your way to a better life...proud of you for your decision...My surgery is on January 26th. Like you...I have a list of health issues that I will be glad to get rid of. Wish you luck...and Merry Christmas!
