I had the surgery about a year and a half now. I was very excited because I wanted and needed to have the surgery for medical reasons and I wanted to live a more healthier life. The day of my surgery I was all perky and ready, I prayed to God and surrendered it all to him. My husband was more nervous than I was. When my Pastor and First Lady came they said you are all smiles. I went in at 294 and I am currently at 174. I still have about 20 more lbs to go so back to a liquid diet and exercise. I went from a size 26 to 16. It is my goal to get to a 12-14. I say get excited it is a milestone to lose the weight. You will feel better and look better. At times when I walk I feel really light on my feet. The greatest reward from this is that I am no longer on all that medication anymore.
