I am 63 and wanting to schedule my sleeve surgery...but still so scared. Keep worrying about my age. I have 2 friends who had this done in Mexico. I have no insurance and the price is affordable...but still so scared. I have no willpower with dieting and I have found exercise just is not enough. I am about 75 lbs overweight. I am so worried about the eating part after the surgery. I hear the hunger hormone is taken with your stomach, but I am a food addict. Kind of like a smoker. I find myself eating when I am not even hungry and its hard to control myself, ya know? Especially in the evening with the family. TV TIME..... And I know how important it is to get all your Water down. How do you do that and also get enough food in to stay healthy???
Wonder how many might have regrets doing this because of the food you have to give up. I've heard of patients loosing their hair from lack of proper nutrition also? I would like to hear from those who may have regrets doing this? Will you ever enjoy meals again? Do you get sick a lot? How many of you have had leaks or gotten infections? How many have had your surgery in Mexico? Please help me to make a decision.....
