good luck to all vsgers . 

Great job! Congrats on your success!!!

 thanks , your doing great as well.

Wow! Nice! I hope I can say the same in another 3 months. I'm looking at the same weight stats as you. It's good to know you can still get there even if you are not perfect everyday. I can't believe you don't have sagging skin. So far so good here but everything is mushy! I'm probably older than you (46) so I don't know that I will fair as well with the sagging skin but who knows! I'm hopeful it won't be as bad as I invision.

CONGRATS! Happy Dancing!

 It looks like your gettin there...yes i wasnt perfect at all , but i walked alot alot alot. about the skin ...give it sometime mine were saggy at first but began to bounce back in a while.

Good to know!

 Congrats on your success!

Great Job!!!!!

ugh... I LOVE your post.


I am a week post op and part of me is wishing for a time machine. Hard to get all my liquids in, protein #'s seem impossible to meet (let alone try cream soups, puddings or yogurt!), tired, still sore, and struggling to chew these damn vitamins!

Your post is a much needed reminder of why I did this! Thank you!

 all i can tell you is ENJOY the ride ....every minute of my journey was fun and amazing, TRUST ME you dont need a time machine ...it will pass by so fast you wont recognise your self in the mirror .
