Hi all! It's been awhile since I've been here, but I had my surgery one year ago today and I wouldn't have been able to get through it without all of the support I received here. I started out a year ago at 250 lbs, size 20 and a year after VSG I am 155 lbs and a size 6! post-182263-14139000966572_thumb.jpg post-182263-14139001633318_thumb.jpg

Hey, hey! Good to "see" you too... In a nutshell, I sold my business in california, filed for divorce after a lengthy separation, and moved across country to florida, all in a span of 30 days!.... so yeah, lots of stress and now struggling with all this vsg stuff, but it's my 1 year aniversary and the perfect time to get back on track!

Congrats on your one year mark! You look beautiful. I just had mine last month also and I'm still trying to get used to the changes in my life. Shopping still confuses the heck out of me! I have no sense of "what is my size?" . I can not wrap my head around being a size 6.

I definitely look better in clothing due to all the extra skin. My docs ( 3 of them) are encouraging plastics/ Tummy Tuck for me, but I'm going to wait a bit longer. How's your skin doing? Our stats are similar (5'6" and 150 lbs at 13 months p/o.)

What a difference a year makes :)

well, if I had the money, I would have plastics, my skin isn't as good as I'd hoped for but far better than most, I am very lucky to have good, elastic skin. When I can I will at the least get my boobs done, they drive me nuts... the rest of it is what it is... since I did this to myself I can't really complain and I can't keep beating myself up over it... I will never walk around in a string bikini but I look damn good in a one piece! Also, my skin seems to get better with time :)

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
