    Hello and welcome to the group
  • Hi Rosanna! Lovely picture. I'm not far ahead of you—I'm a month out today, down a little more than 27 pounds so far, and also would be glad to have friends navigating this process!

    Hello Rosannamo, I'm returning to this board after a long absence. I'm also a newbie VSGer and my stats are similar to yours. Had my Surgery on Monday September 5th so I. Am a week out and I'm down to 242, from 246.

    Hello rosannamo! I'm new here and also just had my surgery 0n 08/18. At a month out, I was down to 257 from a starting weight of 289. I really need to put a more current pic up as this one is from about four years ago!

    My best advice for you now is to follow your surgeons guidelines and not try to push to eat foods earlier than they recommend. Take it slow and be prepared for the possibility that you won't be able to eat some foods at the day & date it says you can add them and that everyone reacts differently to the surgery.
