I live in League City, Tx and this is the doctor I found on the web site that I plan on using. What was your experience? How much weight have you lost? I need to loose 60-65 lbs to be at my goal weight. I am now at 212

How much have you lost?

I'm kinda scared. I need lots of people to tell me it's no big deal. Does it hurt? How long does it take? Can you eat anything just not as much? I don't know anything at this point.

Hi I just registered on the site. I have a friend at my church that has just recently had this done. So far she is ok, but still having some pain. It's been about 6 weeks for her. Her weight loss is slow, but she's very confident about the surgery. I, as you, have been batteling this weight problem for almost 20 years. I am diabetic type II have high BP and high cholesterol. My husbands insurance I was told would pay if you qualify. I am praying that I do, because unless I loose this weight my health will continue to get worse.
