We are looking into the surgery for my husband. He is a good candidate for the surgery. (5'10" 305lbs) Our friend had it done and he is very interested in it now. We are going to try and go with her to Mexico next time and meet her doctor. I'm curious if I should think about it for myself though. I am 5'1" and 170-175lbs. I have stuggled with my weight for years. We have two year old twins ... by the grace of God. We both want to be healthier for them. I guess that I am just looking for testimonials and input into the procedure. Thanks!
