Surgery Type Changed To DS! 10 Days till surgery!!!
Well, after all your input, suggestions, and more research, I have changed my surgery type to DS. Surgeon still would suggest the VSG, but I told him that wasn't an option. So, I have started the pre-op diet, and have 10 days till surgery! Very excited, and a little nervous!

All of the surgeries are good (well, maybe not the band) as long as you are prepared for them. So if you are, go baby go.

BTW who's your surgeon? If you're still going to Tijuana I'm not aware of any vetted DS surgeons there. There's a list of vetted surgeons on DSfacts.com
