I looked into Gastric Bypass back in 2010/2011 with Trinity but backed out. I am now trying to have VSG, I wont be able to actually have the surgery until the first of the year for insurance purposes. All I have to do is another sleep Study and my NUT and Psych evaluation (oh and stop smoking..the toughest thing of all) how far are you into the process?

I just have to meet with the dietician one more time and then they can submit my paperwork. I'm hoping to get it done sometime this year. I look forward to going on our journey's together.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
