  1. I had my bypass in 2009 and now I live with a lot of complications from the bypass, so no I personally wouldn't do it again, I mean yeah, I am small but I'm too small now, so, my Life now consists of throwing up everything I put in my mouth, I literally live off {sonic} ice and even that comes back up sometimes, I only weigh 89 lbs. I'm 5-3. and guess what the surgery didn't change how my brain works cause I still see an overweight girl in the mirror, I am still very self-conscious, I am extremely anemic due to my body not producing or storing iron so blood transfusions are now in my life, I live with GERD so bad water gives me heartburn, I have broken bones way to easily, I have had to have my esophagus dilated 3 times, oh and let's not forget the addiction transfers that landed me in rehab, And The divorce was fun to. I'm only 48 and hate living this way and being sick all the time, it's no fun at all, i wish i knew the long-term outcome of the surgery because I wouldn't have done it or at least, I would have tried a better way to loose weight, and not just jumped right on the bypass band wagon,
