Where to begin, I suffer from some pretty bad back problems and over the years have had some struggles with weight issues, I have PCOS, thyroid and a few other issues.  But in the last two years have researched and decided that this path may help me.  I want to be able to enjoy my children and other family members, go huntingand to be in the active outdoors again....who knows maybe back to school.  I guess I have high hopes on this and really want it to work.  My children are almost grown and i want to be a good influence on them, I am very family centered.  They are somewhat scared of any outcomes and were very nervous of the surgery, they seem to watch me cautiously.  My husband is very supportive and kind also.  As he reminds me he wants what is best for me and for me to be happy.  Hopefully I will get validated support and feedback from others who have had this type of surgery in the next few months and days to come.
