We recently got to spend time with our baby granddaughter - such a precious pie but NOT happy that we wanted her to sit still :-)

I think I have a "before" pic on my profile. For those of you that don't know, my hubby had VSG a year ago. He hit goal in 6 months! So YES - this surgery works if you work it.

ETA: Mike started his journey at 295 lbs. and is maintaining easily at 180-183 (although he looks thinner than that in person!).

Gwen - that facial expression was an accident! I was trying to get Carter to laugh or at least smile and the photographer caught me in the middle of all that. I wasn't even going to get a copy of this pic but Mike insisted we had to have it.
