Hello all,
I was given this forum by my nutritionist so I could understand more about the surgery and what to expect. I am struggling with this because I always thought I was okay. I have now discovered that my health is in jeopardy and I need to make a decision as to what I am going to do about my weight. I have lost weight in the past buy have never kept it off (sound familiar?). Anyway, I am still struggling with this and hope to understand from all of you what I can expect if I choose to go ahead with the surgery. My friends and family are encouraging me not to do the surgery. They are concerned and afraid as I am. I need to lose 80 pounds which seems like an impossible task. My doctor recommended the sleeve as a tool to help. I am just confused as to what it will be like afterward. The idea that food is no longer my friend sort of speak.
Does anyone have any input to the surgery? Has it worked for you? What did it feel like afterward?
I really appreciate your insight and comments.
Thanks to all.
