My surgery was the best thing I have ever done.  It was a tough fight, but I won.  I have given myself a 10 lb.range to work with and have stayed there for the last year and a half.  I have lost a total of 117 lbs.  My blood pressure has gone down but I am still on medication, just a lower dosage.  I can get around and play with my grand daughter and it's a blast to buy clothes off the rack.  I am still fighting with weight around my tummy but I can live with that.  Can't afford to have the excess skin removed.  I just wish I had done it 10 years before.
