Hi there!
I had VSG also and I love it! Best decision I ever made! This forum is a great place to ask questions and get answers from others who are or have been around the same weights or BMI. The VSG board is a good resource also but I love this board because I feel like everyone here understands our frustrations and struggles with having more than just 100 or less to lose. It's a whole different ballgame when your goal weight is someone else's starting weight!! LOL
Please come back and post more. Keep us updated on your progress. Before you know it, it will be time for surgery!!

Welcome!! Looks like our starting weights were about the same. My highest was 339 and 5.5 years later I maintain around 140. WLS was one of my best decisions ever!!
Good luck on your journey!!
