OK so here I am with only seven more pounds to lose. I can't believe it I have completely changed my whole life thanks to my friend the vsg. I wake up most days and don't think about it much. But as the day goes on I'm reminded of how I have changed. Funny thing is how different people look at and even judge a skinny person. I am considered to be of normal height and weight. And boy do people over emphasize on that. In public I order something or go shopping and people are overly helpful. In my past life they would not hardly give me the time of day unless it was commission or tips they were earning. for example I was in Abercrombie and Fitch in San Diego yesterday and I asked the sales girl for an XL in this sweater they had. She looked at me and said is it for you? and I said yes she said a medium or large should fit you just fine! I thought to myself for a minute...then remembered duh I'm not in 200's anymore I can where a women's normal size instead of a mans.That was an eye opener for me. I have never shopped at A&F and bought women's clothing. Look out world here I come.
The level of confidence one gets from having this procedure or losing weight in general is amazing. I would never want to go back to my former self. She was a nice person and I loved her but she was a sad miserable person who deserved so much more than she gave herself. I am proud of her for having the courage to change.
