VSG surgery was on 4 January and I am very happy with the progress. I am just on 30kgs down and within a very healthy BMI. My clothes fit well, but my skin is pretty nasty saggy - a small price to pay for health and wellbeing. My hair has finally stopped shedding at a great rate of knots, pardon the pun, and I've just had my first haircut by a lovely lady who has had a bypass. She really understood my concerns and assured me she can see good healthy growth coming through now.
It's coming out of winter down here in Australia and I'm looking forward to not being as hot and sweaty as usual this summer, and being able to wear a bathing suit at the beach without feeling embarrassed.
Onwards and upwards 🙂

I am about 31/2 months post VSG surgery and have had a number of weeks in a stall. I am ok with it, I know it's normal. BUT...I've found the joy of alcohol again....dammit! I stopped for 12 months in 2020, gained weight, had surgery in January this year, lost a shed load of weight...and stalling. I do think my alcohol consumption is contributing (doh, of course it is, it's empty calories) so I'm on a mission to knock it back for a while.
It's never easy huh! 🙂

I'm with you on this! Im around 3 month too. Had 2 days of drinking on vacation 2 weeks ago but since then, I've had at least 4 more "occasions" to drink. I know its not the worst but alcohol was definitely a contributing factor to my weight gain and its too early for us to get off track. Let's go cold turkey together!
