It took me years to make the decision. I always said I would never have surgery but then they came out with the Sleeve procedure and I took a second look. I ended up with the Gastric Bypass after all due to my weight and age.

I am so happy with my decision. Have lost a total of 67 pounds since surgery in October and 81 overall since Jan 2016.

I really wish I had done it sooner. I have so much more energy and so much less arthritis pain.

I also always always said I don't want to do surgery it's the @easy way out ?" "why put your body through surgery "? But then I was really going hard in the gym and got a hernia and couldn't work out as much of course my hernia was due to obesity. I'm 32 & now one of my aunts has diabetes & the other has heart disease they are petite women. I don't want to be older with health issues & after doing my research I felt like vsg is right for me
