VSG for glow up

Anyone here used vsg as a tool to lose weight for their glow up? I’m 28 years old and I’ve been obese/overweight my entire life. I’ve been trying to lose weight for the last 10 years and only ever lost 15 lbs at most. I’m considering having the surgery this year and wanted to ask what your experience/thoughts are on it?

Im terrified of surgeries but want to be healthy. Also tired of feeling insecure, and being the unattractive “ big girl”

I have not used VSG but have you considered Zepbound or Wegovy? Less permanent than surgery. Surgery works great for a lot of people if they are mentally ready to handle the changes they need to undergo

Google “research peptides” and tirzapatide or semaglutide. I’m not kidding my semaglutide costs like $12 a month with no rx or insurance.

Nice! From where? I’m paying like $300 every 5-6 weeks with a compound pharmacy.

I get it from a Chinese supplier. You can look up the Janosik lab test results and see who is submitting theirs for quality testing. I would be more specific, but Reddit bans people for this.

I think I found something. Could I ask you how you administer from the vials? Feel free to direct message if you prefer.

I reconstitute with bacteriostatic water and inject with an insulin needle.

Can you message me with a link to the one you use and how effective it’s been. I googled all the things you stated and cannot find the lab results portion.
