I have lost 54 pounds and I am feeling better and looking better. I still have a while to go to get to my goal weight but I feel I can reach my goal. This surgery was a lot more work than I thought and it was not easy but I know for me I could not have lost the weight on my own. You still have to learn self control and watch what you eat. I have gone from a size 2X to a size 14. That is a big accomplisment. I am hoping to go down to a size 10. The down fall of the surgery is my hair keeps falling out and it is really thin. I thought I was going to have to get a wig but I see new hair growing back. I wish the best for any one who does this surgery.
