Wow-- it seems like I have been on the computer for the last week doing research and talking to people about the VSG surgery. Lately I have taken a closer look into it. I have had concerns about having the RNY and I couldn't be completely at peace with that decision-- so I knew I had to open my options.I was scared about the malabsorbsion and wondered if I would be sick for the rest of my life-- or just completely scared that whatever I ate would make me sick. Just a few different things didn't completely sit right with me.
I had looked into the VSG before-- not seriously but out of curiosity. I passed it up before for a couple of reasons-- plus I had never talked to anyone who had it done.. I was scared because I didn't know all the facts. I was worried that I wouldn't be able to lose all the weight I want and keep it off. I am fully committed to this and I know I can do it-- it is just something new so I had my doubts. I want this more than anything. I will make it all the way and be healthy for the rest of my life-- for me, for my husband, for my future children.
I sent emails to a few friends on OH and also posted a discussion in which I got some awesome insight about how the VSG is for people. I am very excited that I explored this option and I feel that it is the best option for me and my lifestyle.
Thank you so so much for all of the advise and insight you have given me... I feel at peace with this decision which feels weird at first... I am excited for the future and not scared.
My surgery is in the middle of March... I cant wait to start my new life.
