I say go for it! I have no regrets. I’m 53 had surgery October 17, 2017. Was 240 now 190. I do get hungry but it’s a different feeling. My issue is I get bored. When I’m bored I want to eat. I think my body is comfortable with only losing 50 lbs. my mind is not. I can’t eat avocados. I love them and miss that. I walk some but get shoulder pain and foot pain. I also use a cpap machine. That has gotten a lot better with the weight loss. I do feel a lot better losing 50 lbs.
