Maybe you should of had it done in Montreal.  its not for everyone.  Your BMI has to be around 35.  It is working for me. I love it. Its a tool like everything else. You have to work with it. I am on foods now.  But I can only eat 1/2 c. Then I am full. That half a cup has to be picked wisely protein first. but only half a cup.  What problem are you having.     Doris QC.

 Howdy ya'll!!!

The panni was a succcess... and so now starts the search for a job that is willing to fill out green card papers for me :(  This whole process seems backwards... have the job first, get a contract... THEN apply.  GRRR!!!!

Ada, it is super weird not having the tummy anymore.  I still see so many flaws in myself that I don't hover around mirrors too much LOL.  Next surgery will take care of the skin on my thighs (both inside and outter)  which is planned for next Feb.  

I feel great, and the girdle- which at first was a big pain in the heiney- is now comfortable and when i don't wear it I feel funny.  It is supposed to help with swelling, which can still happen up to 6 months post op.  I bought a smaller sized Spanx to help when this one is too big.  

I am back in Montreal, and since I didn't have the first clue as to where to buy Spanx, brought it with me.  

Well, happy losing ya'll!!!

With VSG they remove 85% of your stomach and with GPS (plication) they fold it in on itself to make it smaller.  I wouldn't recommend the plication as it's not helped me.

Stats are available here:


"overall weight loss was considered satisfactory in 78.6% of the patients who underwent gastricplication and in 97.5% of those who underwent sleeve."   http://www.skrekas.net/surg_hemstatistics.htm

Ok, totally selfish and superficial first reaction was: I want a griddle that will make my tummy look flat like that!

Sarah, I am very happy that your surgery was such a success and I must say that you look absolutely amazing - and here of course I refer to the pics 3 weeks after surgery, don't worry I don't have some weird surgery scar fetish!

Welcome back to Montréal! I hope we'll be able to get together soon!

Monica
