I’m hoping for an August or September surgery date I’ll be done with all of my preops in June and hopefully see the surgeon in July. I’m 27 and so ready to lose this weight. I don’t want to yoyo diet anymore. ‍♀️

Hi Jolexis,

I am also 27 and scheduled for VSG on September 5th! I agree about the yo yo dieting- I know it all too well. Have you been following a dietician prescribed diet? Mine began the end of February and has been a complete shock for me. Was wondering if you have experienced the same thing.

so hows everyone. i have my 3rd weigh in and 2nd nut appointment on Tuesday im excited so far so good yall
