Hey man I can relate to you I'm 43 I also have type 2 diabetes I know decisions not easy one but for me looking at my weight issues and health issues it outweighed the other decisions. Besides with having the surgery you'll lose pretty much most of your health issues I know I will. There's a huge support system out here further your beer out your weight surgery if you have a Facebook page send me a link I'll add you to the group that I'm involved with.
