I couldn't possibly read through every post on here but I'm here to tell you, Yes, you can gain your weight back after VSG. I had my surgery February, 2012 and within a year I dropped 98 pounds. ...

Hmm, I went to your profile and it doesn't show any posts. Try to be patient with us on here. We are all on the same boat as you but can not be utilized as doctors if you are having issues....

Get used to it, I'm over a year out and constantly cold! Might actually be a good thing when we go through Texas summers!!

When I had my surgery a year ago, my twin sons were 8 years old. To me the positives of this surgery outweighed the negatives - being a healthier parent, healthier example to them versus being fat,...

Oh My Goodness! Your before photos almost look like me and I'm starting to get pretty frustrated with the way I look naked. Congrats on such success!

As soon as the anesthesia wore off, I wondered WTH I did to myself!? But after a couple of days and removal of the drain, everything just became "better". I was one of the lucky ones who didn't...

I am so with you on this one! I work in an office of women of varying sizes and they keep telling me that I'm going down to nothing while I know I still have another 20 or so pounds to go. I just...

I was diabetic prior to my surgery and was taking 1000mg Metformin and 20mg Glipizide daily to try and control my out-of-control diabetes. Since surgery I am down to 2.5mg Glipizide daily because my...

We waited about 4 weeks and were very careful and then after we realized it was ok, really went to town! Let me just tell you this - skinnier sex is A-W-E-S-O-M-E! Oh the manipulations your body...

No food in = No "food" out. Don't panic cause you're just doing liquids right now anyways!

Let me be the first to like your post because you think like I do! Yeah, I've told people that I took the easy way out and had surgery - so what? It was the easy way out of an out-of-control...

I like the Taco Bell fresco hard tacos as they have less calories than the regular/soft tacos. Also, the chicken snack wraps at McDonalds without sauce and cheese is another good alternative. If...

I've had more energy and confidence so sex for me has been so much better and my husband is a happy man for it! Plus, the different positions I can do now as compared to when I was heavier . . . oh...

Damn, you look awesome!

Try to put more food into your system and drink plenty of water to flush. It will pick up, don't get discouraged!! I found that going on MyFitnessPal.com really helped me track my caloric intake as...

My heart goes out to anyone who has had the surgery (whether in or out of USA) and has comlications. With that said, just because a surgery is done outside of the country does not mean that there...

I had VSG 2/24/12 and have lost 80 pounds. I've gotten to a point in my weight loss that I'm comfortable where I'm at even though I'm not at goal yet. And that is ok because I know that once I'm...

Hey mfarrett! I'm in Rusk - hehe!!

I was completely stunned by my ribs one day while showering! And hip bones are exciting too! Yeah, it is an exciting transformation as we shed our former selves for the butterflies within. ...

I'm relieved to hear you had success so far with your procedure as I've heard nothing nice about the TT and MMO at Jerusalem. God bless you and your continued healing!

Loved this post! Made me laugh out loud at my office desk!

I have always had a hard time buying clothes for myself because I take care of myself last after my children. I went to the local Goodwill store about a month ago and it was so disorganized that I...

My husband must be related to yours because he has always begged for sex! Now that I've lost 55 pounds I have a new found confidence with sex and find that I enjoy it more without all the...

I stayed at the Hotel Ticuan as I had a guest with me. I loved having the privacy of my own room and bathroom rather than having to share with "strangers". As far as IV meds, you only get it once a...

I took out my own stitches because my PCP doctor became a huge d*ck! They were extremely tight but I made it through until the very last one. I thought I had hold of the stitch and cut but actually...
