I decided to do this procedure after fighting my weight my entire life. I am only 3 weeks post op but am so glad I took the plunge. It has already changed my life, I feel better, have more energy, and definitely look better. I can tell you this hasn't been easy, but will be worth it down the road. The hospital and staff make surgery very comfortable and easy. The hard part is after you get home. You will have ups and downs, good days and bad days, but it gets easier. If you can find someone to talk to , do it, take people up on help when they offer it. If I can do it , so can you. This is life changing and will be so worth it!
