Newbie Introduction

Hello fellow VSGs (in my Austin Powers voice)! I want to come out of lurk mode and join the journey.  This forum is so helpful and you guys are so supportive of each other.  A little info about me, I am scheduled to have surgery with Dr. Aceves in July, I am scared and excited at the same time. 

Hello and Welcome

 Thank you, hope I will have amazing results like yours.

Hey there!

You're going to love Dr. Aceves and his entire team. Even the nurses were great. Even the ones who didn't understand fluent English went out of their way to make sure I had everything I needed ASAP. I swear I got better care there than my husband did when he had his sleeve done in Atlanta.

Welcome to the family.

 It's natural to be scared but you will be so happy, welcome.

Hello and welcome. It's a great forum and the best of people on it! I lurked around on it for about three months until I finally had something I HAD to say then figured out I had to sign up to put in two cents worth...then....well then I found out I'm long winded I guess

I was a lurker since January as well. Just started posting this month, Welcome!!!

Hello and welcome to the Journey!

I have mine with him next Tuesday. One encouragement I can give is that if you have to do a pre-op diet (only if your BMI is over 40) it's the least difficult one I've heard of! Just a week of high protein/very low carb. I started it a week early 'cause I'm goofy that way and have even been able to go out for lunch with my girlfriends.
