My first major goal will be to just make it through the surgery without any complications!  I think it's going to be challenging for my surgeon since I've had an open gall bladder surger in April of this year.  That left me with major scar tissue so they know it won't be a routine easy surgery. So with knowing this ahead of time, they will be prepared for the unexpected!  So I'll set my new goals after I get through the surgery!

I'm 44 years old... overweight 95% of those 44 years... It ends now!   July 27, 2015 I went for my consult for the VSG. At this point I weighed 381 lbs.  They told me I had to lose 47 lbs. before I could have my surgery!  Well I jumped right on it and started my diet the following day!  Today is Nov. 04 and I'm down 43 of those lbs.  My 3 week liquid preop begins on November 17th.  Then my surgery date is December 8th.  The weight loss has been fairly quick until this last few weeks!  Seems to have slowed down a lot!  But I am sure I'll lose those last 3 lbs pretty soon!  Then hopefully a good drop during the preop diet!  Anyway, I am beyond excited and ready for this new beginning for me and my 9 yearold daughter!!!  Can not wait!!!  So good luck to all of you who are post and preop!  We are all in this together!   Debbie
