Hey everyone! I am new on here, just wanting to introduce myself. My name is sandy, I'm 27 years old, and either going to have the vsg or bypass. My first surgeon appointment is Tuesday June 30!! Nervous and excited. I've given up soda and other carbonated drinks, and still battling giving up smoking. I just need to do it! Also have been doing my best to eat 3 balanced meals and snacks only if I'm hungry in between. Anyone on here at or around my same stage?

No I'm not but welcome to the group! And good luck on your journey

I am not in the same stage... I just completed my surgery on June 10th.

But welcome to the forum! Hope you enjoy all of the wonderful information the site has to offer.

It has been such a blessing to me already... so glad I stumbled across it!

Thanks for welcoming me how did your surgery go?

Welcome and best of luck on your journey!
