Good luck Ed!!! I think you are making a great choice! I will be getting sleeved next month! Congratulations on your journey and welcome to the forum!

I had my vsg 2 weeks ago and I already feel better. The first week was tough, but it gets better fast. I now finally feel like I have a real chance at getting this weight issue under control. I wish you the best on your journey, and with this web site you know you won't be going-it alone!
