It is definitely worth it! You are worth it too! I sold a truck to pay for a good portion of my surgery and I can certainly say that I made the right move.

Thank you! I can always sell my husband's Camaro! He won't miss it if he doesn't go anywhere near the garage!

Totally worth it, just wish I had done it earlier !

I am going to be one hell of a sexy sixty year old

Yes. A longer, healthier and happier life, more NSVs than you could shake a stick at, better self esteem, comorbidities that are lessened or gone, etc..

My only regret is not having WLS sooner.

Sleeved 8/23/16. HW 271.5 SW 246.9 CW 205.1 I'll be in onerdland by Christmas. I'm 55. I wish I had done this shortly after the birth of my second child 13 years ago. I had been almost crippled by pain in my knees (I need them replaced). They still hurt, but not nearly as bad - I don't need narcotics for the pain. I have more energy. I don't have clothes - I'm spending a lot of time in thrift shops because I'm dropping through sizes in about a month. Started at size 20-22 pants now hovering between 14 and 12. I have about 50 pounds to my goal. I was scared when I started - the week before surgery I almost backed out. This was the second best decision I've ever made. (Marrying my hubby was the best!)

Hi Dear!

I know this strugle is normal. I'm finishing my preoperative exams ... I want myself back.

I have been thinking the same thing. I am currently only 11 days post op so I know that it will get better but I am still having some stomach pain and I really miss food! I even still have trouble getting enough Water down. But it has got to be worth it because I know that I will continue to heal and things will get better. I am already down 16 pounds in 11 days.
