Would you do it again?

[love to be at goal 6]

Knowing what you now know post op, would you get your sleeve done again? Tell the good, the bad and the ugly!

In a heartbeat. Only regret was it took me so long to do it; however it has to be the right time for you.

yes yes and YES! A kajillion times yes!

The sleeve has not only reversed the horrible path I was going down, it has given me hope for a future in which I won't be miserable. I already feel so much better, and I am excited that I will keep feeling better and better as I head toward goal!

I had tried so many things in the past and always ended up gaining it back plus extra. I was tired of failing, and tired of being tired. I researched all the different WLS and the new diet pills that have recently come available, and those that will be coming soon. I firmly believe that the sleeve was the best answer for me.

Totally would do this again. Next time I would pay more attention when the boards were discussing cross addictions. Ended up with a few that are under control now. Started at a size 22 now a svelt 10. My wardrobe is amazing. I'm going to be a skinny grandma. Yeah. Linda

Absolutely! A few rough post-op days are nothing now that I am losing weight and feeling so much better about myself!

ABSOLUTELY!! I would do it all over again in a New York minute! It's the BEST thing I've EVER done for myself. I just wish I'd dine it earlier!!

Absolutely I would do it again. It has been so much easier than I thought it would be.

Even if I don't lose another pound the rest of my life, I'd absolutely do this again!

Excuse my language, but hell no! No complications, lost a great deal since March, but eating/drinking like this for the rest of my life - just isn't me, but now it has to be sadly, so..hell no, I wouldn't do it, again.

Yes, I'm only 4 months post op and I've lost 58 1/2 lbs! I would do it all again, I just regret not doing it sooner! Loving my sleeve and my new healthier me!!

Totally! My BP was normal & my sleep apnea gone a week post-op! I lost 19 lbs on the pre-op diet & 20 more in the 5 weeks since surgery. I was sidelined by a UTI from the catheter I had in the hospital. The antibiotics I took after that slowed my weight loss & I stalled for 10 days but I am back on track & losing again. I had minimal pain, have yet to be nauseated, vomit, diarrhea or be constipated. I've been extremely lucky & I am so very thankful!

I would totally do it again. I've been frustrated a few times because I couldn't eat what I want, but eating what I want all the time is why I've been so unhealthy. Sometimes there are lows, when I feel like I'm unraveling a mess in my head when it comes to food. Over all, I know that I needed a serious intervention and my sleeve was that intervention. I'm about two and a half months out, now and including my pre op, am down 53 pounds. But its not just the weight. I all around feel better. I'm wearing clothes I never thought I'd wear. I'm sleeping better and have so much more energy. I'm starting to exercise in baby steps and its awesome because I actually have the energy, making it so much easier to motivate myself to get off my butt. I feel like I've gotten out of the downward spiral I was in for so long.

100% yes!! 60 lbs gone forever in three months- wearing clothes I haven't worn in years- heck yes! There are times that I miss eating all I want but that is all in my head!!!
