I'm new to this forum.

Hello, I had VBG done on the 23rd of September, so I guess that puts me at about one week post-op. My first visit with the Dr. had me at a weight loss of 22 pounds [BEFORE all the staples were removed].

Jennifer, Welcome aboard. I hope the VBG works for you. It didn't for me. I had it revised to RNY 2+ years ago.

Welcome Jennifer! I read your profile and it sounds like you've been through a lot, switching surgeons, getting sick etc. I pray your recovery goes well! 22 pounds-that's awesome. Keep up the great work.
