I know that I can deal with the pre/post-op diet and the pain/discomfort of the surgery.
It's the maintenance that I'm worried about. Is it difficult to keep the weight off, say, a few years after the surgery?
How much discipline is required to keep the weight off? I binge eat. Even if I'm not hungry, I eat. Is it possible to binge after the surgery? Like would I still be able to eat an entire family-size bag of popcorn after the surgery? I'm hoping "no".

Hello
I'm considering the surgery (self-pay).
I know that I can deal with the pre/post-op diet and the pain/discomfort of the surgery.
It's the maintenance that I'm worried about. Is it difficult to keep the weight off, say, a few years after the surgery?
How much discipline is required to keep the weight off? I binge eat. Even if I'm not hungry, I eat. Is it possible to binge after the surgery? Like would I still be able to eat an entire family-size bag of popcorn after the surgery? I'm hoping "no".
Any insights are greatly appreciated.
Thank you!
