New Year New Me

Jan 01, 2011

Hello everyone,
I am happy to start off the new year as a new me. I had VSG on Nove 9th and had a week pre op diet before that. I am down 53 lbs so far and am amazed as to how fast weight is coming off. I was squeezing into size 46 pants before and none of my shirts fit too well before surgery. I am glad I saved my old clothes because I am down to a size 40-38 and my shirts are now xl instead of xx and xxxl. My face is changed along with my feet hands legs arms everything. I am so gratefull for this surgery it has changed my life. I used to sweat all the time now I hardly ever sweat and no bad smelling bo like before. I have had a lot of help from my wife and am very greatful to her for her support. I have my two month follow up on the tenth so hopefully everything will come back good from my bloodwork. I had diabetes before the surgery and have had no problems since post op. This surgery is not easy by any means though. I have had to learn how to eat slow chew my food sip instead of chug and so on and so on. It has also taken a lot mentally because you are so used to eating in one way now you cant and you start to think and question yourself did you do the right thing but now almost two month's post op I would never change anything and wish I would have done it earlier.
