Curious to hear people's stories of gastric bypass....

Hello. My name is Rebecca and I am 35 years old. I am currently going through the process of eventually having gastric bypass. I am curious to hear other people's stories. Doesn't matter if they are good or bad. I'm also curious if people freaked out a bit before the surgery meaning yes I'm going to have it, no I'm not. Thanks!!!????

Hello, I had the bypass 4/8, so I'm a little over 2 weeks post op and my starting weight was 342 lbs and now I'm down to 324 lbs. I'm not gonna lie its not easy but if you put in the work you will succeed. They weren't joking when they said the surgery is just a tool. My reason to have surgery was due to being diagnosed with high blood pressure and diabetes. I didn't want that for myself. So when I got diagnosed with that last June that was my wake up call that I needed to make some changes. I hope you decide if this is best for you because I don't have any regrets.
