I'm 50 an have multiple autoimmune diseases. ..the benefits outweighs the risk! Best decision or should I say one of the best I have made for myself. I had 2 specialist refer me to surgeon. My weight was not going anywhere but up up up! I am 9 wks it An 60 down...its hard first month I'm not going to lie. My surgeon told me if u can make it thru first 4 wks you'll be good..he was right. I struggled a lot..mentally emotionally. .but I worked thru it..I did this for me my health. I didn't tell my family. I have thought about this for 15 yrs..it was time for me to get my life back. So I took control. .maybe u have tried to help them understand this is for your health I'm sure..it's a complete lifestyle change an I would just have to say they can be on board an help an support or well...I'll let you fill that in..lol...:) hang in there! I wish u the best!! Keep us posted!! :)

I am scheduled for mid-December in Mexicali, Mexico with Dr. Rodolfo Wilhelmy. I feel no hesitation, at all. Can't wait to go and get to this stage of my life!

Good luck, Gary! I can't think of a better birthday present you could give yourself. Come to think of it, my surgery will take place two weeks before my birthday!
