Awesome! I added you as a friend since you were one of the people to most on my very first post. Looking like my surgery date is April 16, I am both nervous and excited! 35lbs wowwweee!

Hey everyone, newbie here! I am preparing for my VSG surgery and boy are things moving fast! Surgeon & seminar next weekend and the following week my mental health assessment and then bam I can schedule surgery! I love my insurance company let me tell you! My surgeon's nurse wanted to schedule me 2 weeks after my mental health assesment, I was like whoah slow down I have to get time off etc lol. I will discuss dates with surgeon next week, I am thinking sometime in March, I will post once I know. My story is long and detailed, so I will post it later. But I weigh today 276.8lbs and I am already starting to do some things that I know I will have to do after surgery, like I have not had a carbonated beverage in a week - wow - that has been hard! Starting to sip beverages and not gulp and eat small bites of food, chewing really well, I figure better to start habits now! All of the stories on here are inspirng and the stories and information given is helping me so much, I am so grateful I found this site, I look forward to sharing my journey and reading more about everyone else's! Love & Hugs - Anne
