Debvzw 48 Posted April 22, 2013 On 3/6/2012 I had VSG surgery and yes, it was the best decision I ever made. My life has changed soo much and all for the good. I exercise every day I can bend over and tie my shoes I can cross my legs I no longer need seat belt extender on airplanes I can wear heels I wore a dress for the first time in 8 years 2 weeks ago I went hiking with my grand kids yesterday and we had to stop for rests because THEY were tired, not me! I have soo much energy I feel good about myself again I went from a size 24-26 to a 12 I fit in a booth at restaurants I can mow my own grass(dont have to hire someone to do it this year) I could go on forever about the benefits of this surgery, instead let me just show you 11 ToniRenae, hadouni, missypooh1975 and 8 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
