What type of advice can you guys offer for friends/family members who want to support? My best friend/ roommate wants to support me but doesn't know how. Being that I'm in the early stages of this process, what are something your friends / family members did or didn't do to support before, during and after surgery?

Bill has contacted me already and I'm going to call him on Monday. I'm leaning twords the bypass because I have a lot of weight to lose. Currently 365. I have done a bit of research on both think this would be the best fit. [emoji16] Sent from my SM-G955U using BariatricPal mobile app
Thank you! No date yet but hopefully going to set one on Monday. I just made the decision last week to have this done across the boarder after I found out my insurance wouldn't cover and I'd have to pay out of pocket. My cousin had the bypass about a year and a half ago. I'm hoping to meet people who are on the same timeline as me so we can experience this together.

Thank you for sharing this! I struggle with the same back issues. This is one of the main reasons I am looking Into getting this done. Not being able to walk or stand for more than 15 to 20 mins is killing me . Chronic back pain is killing me. I want to be healthy and able to walk and run and work out.
