I have 50 to 60 pounds to lose. The Doctor in Mexico said they would operate. I have had a weight problem all of my life. I have tried everything even hypnosis only to see my weight keep going up. I feel it is safer to do before I get even heavier. I have severe Acid Reflux that has required surgery on one of my vocal chords due to nodules from acid reflux. My family supports me. I hope I am doing the right thing.
