New Here

[Souledout 31]

Hi all!! I am new here. I'm from Mississippi and will be having my VSG in ocean springs. Had the initial meeting 2 months ago and meeting with my surgeon on June 12. Hopefully having my surgery the 1st week of July. I have yo-yoed my entire life and am sick of it. Very excited and extremely nervous (not very good with pain lol.).

Good luck with your journey!! I just had my surgery a week ago & couldn't be happier with my decision! Feel free to check out my blog (listed in my signature) if you'd like.

Welcome! Whatever pain there is is worth getting the weight off. Actually with mine seemed the pain was more incision related than anything else. They will give you pain medication, they want you as pain free as possible since pain inhibits healing and causes an inflamatory response in the body.
