  1. My biggest concern about WLS was that I viewed this as the last ditch effort for losing weight and having had a past of losing weight only to gain it all back again eventually was preventing me from making this decision for fear that I would be doing something as drastic as this and it was probably not going to work either. thankfully, I overcame that fear after listening to my surgeon at the info session explain all the health benefits of WLS and all the health detriments of remaining obese. I have to admit that now even 18 mos. post surgery I still am fearful of gaining back my weight.

    Extreme Bloating

    I'm 18 mo post surgery and have suffered from this for about the last 6 mo. Bloating is one thing but extreme gassiness is another. Some days I feel like its just seeping out of me and extremely odorous!!! I can empty a room in seconds!!! Very embarrassing. I find that I'm good for a day or two after I've taken a laxative but I don't think this is something I should rely on regularly..no pun intended. Any suggestions greatly appreciated!

    wedding ring...

    My wedding band actually cracked from having it resized several times after pregnancies and gaining weight etc. So it has been sitting in a box in my bureau for a couple of years. Just last month my husband suggested that I get it resized. We went together to the jewelers and jazzed up the band and I just picked it up last Friday. I feel like a new bride! I can't stop looking at my ring now! I'm so glad I did it. I am actually smaller than the original size too! Married 35 years this November.
