Pre-Surgery, Post Surgery, Newbies, Oldies, Vets......
Like most of you, I read these boards pretty often..... to learn, to share, to stay connected to my WLS goals.
More and more people are getting the VSG......An explosion of new patients and surgeons have appeared in just the 2 years I've been around.
I really want the VSG to become the go-to "Gold Standard" procedure and everyone that under goes any bariatric surgery get the results that are possible. I know what it has done for me and many others and I wish the same for everyone.
The VSG is a Non-Standardized procedure..... and well.....not all sleeves are created equal. Some surgeries I read about are way behind the curve. Some of the eating programs are questionable at best and some of these nutritionist are just reading from a book for normies.
So the the point I'm trying to make here..........
Please read Pop Pop's post !
What ever surgery you have, who ever does your surgery........ It ain't gonna work......
If you don't have "COMMITMENT"
There seems to be a HUGE lack of commitment here !!!! People relying way to much on the surgery !!!
Not sayin I'm perfect or Pops is perfect..... but check this guy out !!!!
Read his post.... look at his numbers.... look how committed he is....than ask yourself why your not doing as well????
Everybody posts about blaming carbs, protein, bougies, exercise, this person, that person, birthday, flag day, the wind blew......
I guaranty you.... If you add more commitment to your plan.....you will do much better. The more commitment you add....the better you will do.......

Thanks again......both you and Pop Pop are the examples of what true success is like with the sleeve!!!
