Hey all,
I'm 35 years old and just got my VSG earlier this week. On November 15 2011 I met with my surgeon and his staff...the scale that days aid 561lbs...that day I startedmy preop diet of 1200 calories, 96oz of Water, Adipex (appetite) supressant, and working out at the gym.
105 days later it was the day of my operation and I had lost just over 100 lbs. It was probably my lowest weight in a long time, but not sure exactly when. I spent one night in the hospital, which was fine since I was hopped up on drugs! My first day home I was in a decent amount of pain, but that has mostly stopped now. My only complaint now is lack of energy. After taking a shower this morning, I was exhausted and had to sit for 20 minutes and rest in bed.
I'm excited and nervous to continue down this path, and just wanted to share where I was in all of this.
