I have been up and down with my weight for as long as I can remember...after having my son I decided that I should mae the change. I'm 5'1 and 230lbs. that's too much weight on my petite frame...When do you plan on having the surgery? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kaybritt 0 Posted April 16, 2009 well i had my surgery about 2 years ago and let me tell you i think it's the best decision i could had ever done in my life, i was also 230lbs and 5'2. i'm now 165lbs and off all meds. i was on high blood pressure med. and got off just a month after surgery, my weight loss has been slow but steady. i think you too would be happy once you get this done and get to your goal weight. gotta tell you it's not easy but if you put your mind and effort it's very effective. good luck to both and god blees you!
