Hi all, I'm extremely nervous and I'm only at the very beginning of my VGS journey. I finally made the decision to have it done. My insurance company is completely worthless and VGS is an exclusion so this will be self pay. My BMI is 48.7 ☹️ and I have several health conditions that my primary care physician is strongly recommending VGS surgery. My wife can't or won't understand completely why I need to have this done. She has seen me lose and gain weight for over 20 years, and she constantly says to me "you don't need this, you've lost the weight before, you can do it again...". That's the point exactly, the yoyo of my weight has put my life in jeopardy and my health is deteriorating 😢. So my support system at home is poor at best. I'm addicted to food and large quantities. I'm a very vain person and appearance is always looming over my head. I am hoping that this blog and the people that use it can help and support me through this critical time. Thank you all in advance. J
