sleevegirl830 4 Posted February 9, 2013 I have no idea whether I'm following proper protocol....but I'm posting an intro of myself! I live in Arizona and I stumbled upon verticalsleevetalk.com on the internet! I had VSG on December 18, 2012 in Scottsdale, AZ. Doing really well. I'm down just under 40 lbs. No problems at all and good healing. Just looking for others who are taking this path!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sleevegirl830 4 Posted February 9, 2013 I'm currently pretty restricted on what I eat. Lots of protein: chicken, turkey, fish, Beans, cooked veggies, peeled fruits, Protein Drinks, dairy. I'm excited to get back to salads and uncooked veggies and beef! I drink about 64 oz of Water a day. I'm walking a mile about 4 days a week. I lost the first 30 lbs really fast and now...I feel like I'm dragging a little bit! I had no required weight to lose before surgery. I do like the feel of baggy clothes already!
