Hi Missey and welcome. I'm new here too. Getting my last few appointments done this month and they hopefully surgery! Jumping up and down (poor floor lol) Just wait, a few months from now we will look back and remember these days. I'm so impatient though, my days are DRAGGING along now! lol Nice to meet you.

Nice to meet you too. The days are soooooooo much longer as I wait. The poor insurance lady at the doctors office may get tired of me e-mailing her !

Welcome Missey

Yes this is a great forum. Last year at this time I was were your at. Now I am almost 6 months po-op. Before you know it you will have your approval and be on your way. I know waiting is the worst part.

Welcome Missey!

I feel the same was as you. I know that everyone struggles with weight and that WLS is just as important to someone who is 235 lbs vs 600 lbs. HOWEVER when you start from a higher place, sometimes it's hard to be sympathic to our smaller sisters and brothers. I know that I'd give my left leg to be 235 lbs (and that's probably what it would take lol!).

welcome welcome welcome~!

Welcome! I am new myself, I had VSG 6 days ago and know what you mean about the waiting. It's like by the time you decide this is right for you, you have to wait forever for the journey to start. Hang in there cause its worth it. I feel so free not to be thinking of food every second of the day, I hope it stays that way. Good luck!
