As I have been obese my entire life and struggled to lose weight and regain it time and time again. I started to seriously consider WLS. Soooo, I consulted with my insurance, researched local surgeons, and submitted my getting started paperwork. I am looking for support from people who understand the struggle and reassurance that this is a good decision.

welcome....it's a great decision! I'm already off my blood pressure med. just think how healthier you'll be.

I did the same thing you did in January and I am 4 days post op and I've made the best decision I could. Absolutely no regrets!

I also made the decision in January 7th and I am 8 days post-op. I can say this was the best decision I have ever made, following marriage and children.

WELCOME!!! I Over thought the decision for almost 4 years hoping i could do it on my own. I got my act together. I am finally getting surgery in a week. I'm still in shock but I am anxious. We are all here for each other. Don't hesitate to ask ANY questions. Good luck!!!

Ok, an update on my journey. Today I met with surgeon, psyche, and dietician. I am on a pre-op diet for 4 weeks and then should be able to schedule my surgery date. YIPPEE!
