I regret it. I have gone into detail on several threads dealing with regret such as "Would You Have Weight Loss Surgery Again?" If you want to know any specifics, please private message me & I'd be happy to talk with you about it. I haven't had any complications, so please don't think it is anything like that; I've been lucky, it isn't. In a nutshell, I miss the old me, my old life, unhealthy or not. I don't feel like me at all now. I am not me & it isn't a good feeling.

Please make sure wls is for you. There's no going back.

Best of luck to you. Do what is best for you.

For me the first 2-3 weeks was horrible, but now on week 4 its so much easier. I was in a lot of pain, hard time eating and drinking and temptation for my favorite foods was horrible. But now the pain is gone, I can take my Vitamins, and walk around without as much exhaustion. I spoke to my doctor and he told me that the 1st month is full of regret and by 3 months you feel its the best thing you've ever done. I can certainly see that in my future :)

I've had no regrets. I haven't had any complications bc I followed all my doc's directions and took good care of myself. :)

The first couple of weeks I regretted it - I was SO tired' date=' couldn't eat, threw up a lot. Turns out my sleeve was too tight. Once that was fixed, I bounced back quickly! I am 6 months out and am almost 100 lbs lighter. I'm training for a 5k this August. I have confidence and am loving every inch of myself.

It's not easy, but it is SO worth it! Literally, this is the best thing I have ever done for myself.[/quote']

How was your sleeve fixed? I'm having similar issues and had a metal stent put in and it is not helping at all! How soon after they fixed your sleeve did you start improving?
