Hey Frank, So glad to hear you're doing well. Keep us posted. Good luck to all future VSG'ers.

Hi Frank, glad to hear from you. The key is a positive attitude, the newness of the surgery will pass soon and when you see the results you'll be happy you went through it. Take one day at a time and keep walking you'll be as good as new in no time.

Congrats, one day at a time. Like Amazon said, this will be behind you and on to better health.

Hi Frankenstein, what you're feeling is normal, if you weren't feeling what you're feeling would worry me. I went through the same thing, as I'm sure everyone did. I'm 10 months out and the only regret I have is I didn't do it sooner. I feel completely normal. I drink water fine, have wine occasionally. You have to remember, after the surgery, you won't want to do what your doing now. I use to drink at least 2 large glasses of water or milk at meals and honestly I don't miss it.I will take small sips while eating if food is to hot or spicy, yes I can still eat spicy foods. The first weeks are trying but goes fast,once you're on food again you'll be happy, and happier with the weight loss and better health. The first only thing I hate but do is exercise, that is the big key. I've could of lost more weight if I done it from the beginning,so that is a must. What ever your decision we're here for you. Good luck.

Also Cindy, you have all the fluids from surgery. That will go away.

Hi all, I'm 9 months out and lost 70lbs. with more to lose, but I have to say I'm always plateauing, I use "MyFitnessPal" to track my food, calories, fats ect. but it's not falling off like others. Any one experience this?
