The truth is is that guy looks horrible. Notice how he's saying all of his problems are solved 7months after. HE COULD HAVE SOLVED THEM WITHOUT SURGERY. He's talking about walking an hour a day now. He could have done that before(slowly worked up to one hour.) High Cholesterol-stop eating so much meat and animal products. More vegetables instead. Type 2 Diabetes, Exercise and carb cut. (his case of:)Arthritis all previous advice+eliminate allergens from the diet. Acid reflux small meals-less oil
Marshall444. The reaction of your skin to various surgeries is not valid nor is the "speed" of weight loss. Each individual will have problems with excess skin but men have much better luck than women in this regard. Thanks for commenting. Carl
Thank you for sharing your experience! It was very helpful, as many are trying to decide which route to go I will get the VSG, if covered by Medicare.
Great video....update is that insurance companies are now covering this surgery and are seeing how awesome this surgery is as a stand alone proceedure.
I'm just waiting for the surgery date.... I am excited and nervous at the same time... I can hardly wait to have the VSG done *_*
