Hello!

[Leslie 14]

Hi everyone!

My name is Leslie and I live in Cincinnati. I will be 32 in a few days. The biggest and best present I could ever have hoped for is my VSG which is scheduled for July 12. I am soooo excited. I have been overweight for as long as I can remember. Thankfully my husband has awesome insurance and they approved me right away. I had a BMI of 39 and no co-morbidites. However, my family history is terrible so it was only a matter of time I think.

Anyways, I just wanted to say hello! After years of lurking and wantin the surgery, finally my time has come too!

Blessings,

Leslie

Hi,

You have taken right decision. Vertical sleeve surgery is right option to lose weight. You will never regain lost weight after surgery. You will have to take more Protein in diet after surgery.
