It's changed my life. I can't tell you what to do but I suggest it to all my friends that meet the weight and guidelines needed in order to get the surgery. PM me and I might be able to offer you some personal advice.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
