I had surgery 11/5/12. My starting weight was 415 im now 355. Ive lost 60 pounds. I was in a size 28 not sure what size i am now because i refuse to buy new clothes just yet lol.

If so give me some advice on how you did it? Thanks amd happy new year everyone!!!!! :-)

please tell me any difficulties and if you retreat
I hate when people say how easy it was. The first few weeks was horrible for most people especially emotionally. People need to hear the truth because i listened and thought it was going to be easy. Wls needs to be something that u need to live. U shouldn't get it just because you can. Ive actually heard of ppl gaining weight to be able to have surgery. That's ridiculous. Just know that most of the time after about 3 weeks it seems like patients start to feel alot better!!! But i say it's worth it

Surgery Wounds
I had my drain removed friday. I would say the removal felt similar to getting pricked with a needle. It wasn't bad at all. Just breathe deeply. My doctor was talking to me and then he just took it out. It was a great distraction from him removing the tube
