Hey...I'm new to this! :)

[NaturalBeauty58 6]

Hey y'all. I came across this site today. I have been doing research on the VSG for a while, attended a seminar two weeks ago and decided this is something definitely want for myself. I met with my surgeon today, and have scheduled my first meeting with a nutritionist and psychiatrist tomorrow (they work pretty fast here). My primary Dr said I have to have an upper GI and another meeting with a nutrionist, so roughly two months of prep prior to surgery, pending review from my insurance company. I'm hoping that this works out. I am 28, and have been carrying this weight for the majority of my life. I have always been a happy, positive, and confident woman...but as I am nearing 30, it's definitely time to make more positive changes.

Looking forward to making friends with you all and reading all about your journey. Say "hey" when you can.

Hey!!! I really appreciate that! I've been debating WLS for the past year or so. I've finally stopped being a baby about it. I'm definitely looking forward to cheaper clothing.
