jaylee9146 17 Posted October 15, 2016 Sleeve surgery 10/19. BMI is on the lower end at 36. Lost 50lbs 5years ago and have put it all back on. Starting to feel anxious and second guess the decision. Would you do it again? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pescador 1,374 Posted October 15, 2016 Absolutely. It has been lfechanging. I hope you don't wait until you have serious health issues like we did. It is the best thing we have ever done for ourselves. Good luck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bufflehead 6,358 Posted October 15, 2016 I would do it again several times a year (not kidding) if that was what was required to maintain my weight loss. Thankfully, it isn't, but yeah I would do it again and again and again if needed. I am a peaceful person but if a medical team showed up and said they planned to do a takeback on my surgery (not medically possible ofc) I would beat them to death with my clawhammer and not regret it.

Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App I am sincerely sorry to hear that and hope whatever problems you have get resolved.

BestDayEver 418 Posted October 16, 2016 No regrets. No complications. All excess weight gone. Maintaining loss for 7 months now. I changed my eating habits and like the way I eat now. I love that I will always have this restriction. I feel like I eat reasonably sized meals, I just can't overeat which is such a blessing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
