Knowing what you know now about weight loss surgery, would you do it again if you had the chance to make your decision again? Choose your option in the above poll, and then explain it in the discussion below!

I am four weeks out' date=' and right now I regret my decision. I had the surgery for a better quality and healthy life but I feel that I will never feel "right" again. I feel like everything gets stuck in my chest (like a pill that went down the wrong way). I hope it gets better and hope I will be happy with my decision in a month from now.[/quote']

That's how I feel from time 2 time but haven't had pills get stuck & hope I don't good luck 2 you hope we can get through this

I was skeptical for about the first month post-op because if how I felt (headaches' date='so thirsty,tired, sore) but now that I'm starting my third month I am very pleased. I would do it again because the initial symptoms I mentioned are about gone and I've lost 47lbs in 9weeks! Yaaaay![/quote']

Congrats

This is making me so scared! I have struggled with my weight for over 20 years. I have sleep apnea, high cholesterol, high triglycerides. I have gained and lost 50lbs or more at least 10 times!

I just pray everything will be okay!

I sometimes feel like I want food 2 when did u have your surgery

I know im so desperate to eat i did my surgery on 4/23/2013

All i wanted was food too,so i thought. I tasted some corn chowder that I pureed and it was not at all what i wanted... crave things i ate in the Low Carb lifestyle that is too early for me to have like meats and vegetables. I cant wait to have some meatloaf!

Hang in there! The first two weeks were the worse for me. After that passed, each week got easier. I'm 9 weeks out and life seems back to normal (minus the food)... I still go through bouts of missing certain things, but nothing that I would consider trading my new tummy for.

I wonder if a notification is sent when someone casts a vote, even if he/she doesn't make a comment?

Please do not be scared. Talk it through with your surgeon. I had around 65% of my stomach removed in my VSG, I think the Czech doctors are not so extreme as the USA ones on this. I can now eat a 6 oz steak and a few fries in one go, I am 3 years out. My BMI is currently 22.8 and has been in the normal range from about 6 months after the surgery. For me it has been a lifesaver.

Good luck.
