Before committing to weight loss surgery, make sure you’re doing it for yourself. That’s the only way you’ll be able to make it work.

Agree!! I did not ask for anyone's "permission" and my husband was not exactly happy about his wife of 30 years having major stomach surgery to lose weight....but I did it. Some days I still have to pinch myself that I actually went through with it. I dreamed of it for years, and now it's done. I'm working through some rough Patches with hunger, but that seems to be finally evening out some. I did it to be healthy...not to be a super model.
