<p>Hello. &nbsp;I am 31 and never thought i would be &quot;desperate&quot; enough to consider surgery. &nbsp;In the last 6 months, I have started thinking that it might be the only way I can ever get down to a healthy weight. &nbsp;I watched my grandfather die at age 60 with advanced diabetes, after multiple heart attacks. &nbsp;I now watch my mom struggle with her diabetes. &nbsp;My sister just got diagnosed as diabetic. &nbsp;I am heavier than all. &nbsp;So far, I have been lucky, and all of my numbers are within normal limits, but I know that eventually, it will be an issue.&nbsp;</p>
