One Year Today

I had VSG one year ago today. Best decision of my life. I’m down 98 pounds since surgery and 112 pounds since the start of my pre-op diet. Weight day of surgery was 252. Today I am 154. It took me 9 months to lose the weight and I’ve been maintaining between 151 and 156 for the past three months. While I’d like to get below 150, maintaining in the range I am in has been a breeze. Plus, I am at a healthy BMI. I was so hesitant to go through this process. I was border line diabetic, had sleep apnea, chronic back pain, and low energy. I was afraid of the unknowns of VSG, but I refused to let fear make the decision for me. I want to encourage anyone like me to choose VSG. Maybe some day I’ll get the courage to post before and after pics!
