Hi there. I read your post and thought, wow we are similar. I have just started on this journey of the pros and cons, saw one surgeon and have an appointment later this week with another surgeon.
I am 43 years old, I have lost weight in the past and the biggest loss was 80 pounds in about six months, for a friends wedding. That was many years ago and as I've gotten older and kids and life I have not been able to keep my weight priority.
I enjoy working out, but at this size it's bit of a challenge. I'm going to get a second opinion here with this other surgeon just because he's closer and hoping Insurance will go through and will get started on this journey.
I wish you all the best and hope that you are successful and keep us posted on your progress. Best of luck
