Someone recently asked me the down side to getting the sleeve, so here is my list...

1. Had to get all new clothes.
2. It takes more water to fill my bathtub with me in it now.
3. I can no longer use my bad knees and back as an excuse to not excersize.  Since weight loss they don't hurt anymore.. so excuse out the window.
4. The constant compliments..   arrrgh   a lot to take.
5. I paid extra for a obesity scale and now I dont need it.
6. My life insurance had me fill out new paperwork as I can pay less now that I lost so much weight.
7. I dont get to meet the nice flight attendant on the plane when I ask for the seat belt extender.
8. I have to tie my own shoes now that I can.
9. I also have to zip up my own zipper on my jacket because I can now see the bottom of it.
10. no excuse for a pedicure as I can reach my own toes.


As you can see there are MANY down sides to having the VSG

Wait, no pedicures!, please tell me the full body massages are still there, I need my spa excuse!

I know this might sound sad, but I REALLY can't wait for all these "bad" things to happen to me. I have my consultation this Friday!!!!
