Hi everyone! I just had my VSG on 4/17/18 and I am wondering if there are any of you that are from New England? I grew up in Massachusetts, specifically Cape Cod, but I moved to Vermont in 2006. Anyway, I know I saw someone s from Fitchburg, that is where my father went to college the first time. I have lots of family in the South shore (MA). say hello!

I’m doing good thanks. I’ve been pretty lucky, everything has gone well. I have my first follow up appointment tomorrow and hopefully will get to move onto puréed foods. I’m ready for a little more variety. I get tired at times. On occasion I get nauseous. You just take it day by day. I sometimes have to remind myself to take it easy and that I had surgery less than 3 weeks ago. Good luck with your upcoming surgery!

Technically, I'm currently a NYer, but I used to live just outside Manchester NH and am hoping to move back up that way within the next 2 years.

Hi fellow New Englanders! I'm from RI, sleeved 4/4. So glad to finally have some warmer weather to get out and walk - I was going crazy doing laps around my house.

To those of you who have been "sleeved" already , yay! Hopefully your recovery is still going well. Today is my first full week , I'm doing ok, tired and ready to get this drain and staples (yes, STAPLES!) out tomorrow! Seriously, 9 out of 10 people I have talked to are like, "staples? Like metal staples?" I guess that is what my surgeon likes....torture. I guess everyone else I know has had glue or steri strips, and they had a bypass. (And it's not really torture) .

Good luck to everyone who has upcoming surgery! I guess everyone is different with recovery. I wondered how I was going to make it through the first week and then one day it was just easier. I wish Vermont people were here! I would be nice to find a recovery buddy, and Craigslist is way too sketchy! Lol!
