You forgot I got to goal in only 6 or 9 months. Then my favorite my surgeon is the best! Don't go to anyone else for your VSG! Very funny! Love it!

Yeah, I don't get that one. I DO think my surgeon is the best--but I live near his practice. If I live in, say, Minnesota, I would NOT have flown out here for VSG! Find a GOOD surgeon you can actually go to/afford. There are lots.

I 100% agree with you there are many good docs out there! Being able to see them if something goes wrong is important.

Thank you for the laughter! This was the most on target, on point, relevant post I have seen on this sight. It should be pinned to the top of the message board.... along with instructions on how to seach previous topics. : )

no doubt these are repetitive or silly, but really, besides discussing recipes and knitting patterns there really isn't any other appropriate content for this forum. It's just people talking through things out loud and sometimes it's not really clear in your head what you are doing (or how 'stupid' it is****il you do so. Helps people unstick themselves from whatever thought is occupying their minds at the moment and perhaps impeding their decisions or progress. It's all good.

PS, saying that a post is for ladies only or gross only encourages people to read it more! lol
