Hi I am new to VStalk. I desire so much to get the VSG. Going to a seminar tomorrow. I am thrilled to know that I may loose weight in my big feet. I wore size 11 when I was 11 y.o. After having 5 children, I now wear size 13 (that's right, drag queen size). I can barely find wonderful shoes and I love, love shoes so much. So after reading comments, I am so hopeful about wearing at the most, a size 12, post surgery. Thank you all for being here as I move along in my weight loss journey. It is comforting to connect where others totally understand. It hasn't been the easiest discussing weight loss matters with my family. I am so excited to see the weight loss journey of others ... it inspire me so much.
