Cannot decide if surgery is for me
Its hard work and WLS isn't easy and you have to work hard to get the weight off.People think that WLS is performed and weight drops off magically....it's a commitment...and constant management.....patience...

Head ache post op
Mine lasted for a week.I was so upset because I wanted to take excedrine so bad....Tylenol was what I could take.,.In your case are you a caffeine/coffee drinker?If you are you could be experiencing caffeine withdrawal.

Much slower weight loss when revision from lapband to bypass
Yes a decline on the scale I will take.My appetite has returned 4 month post op but I control it with small protein meals spaced out.I must incorporate the oatmeal at least 3x weekly or suffer crazy constipation.I have cut out sugar.The protein drinks have about 2 grams of sugar max.No fruits just vegetables and protein.I struggle with water intake.
