    Hi Connie! My name is Angie. I just had RNY Monday the 16th, and I'm doing fantastic. I couldn't have been half as prepared if it wasn't for this amazing group of wonderful and open people. You can friend me if you'd like!

    Congrats Connie! My surgery date (VSG) was just behind yours and on the same day as Angie - 11/16. This group has really helped me a lot in such a short time. Please feel free to friend me if you like.

    Hi Connie - I had VSG on 9/10. The first few weeks can be a little rough, but hang in there as it's such a beautiful thing to see your body changing and the scale #s dropping. Best of luck to you!

    Sleeved here on November 2nd, so we aren't far off from one another. Unfortunately, I have about 100 pounds on you...
