    No doubt I'd do it again. I still struggle with food but this tool is really helping. I feel much better and have way more energy. Good luck!! HW 284, CW 179

  • I would do it again several times a year (not kidding) if that was what was required to maintain my weight loss. Thankfully, it isn't, but yeah I would do it again and again and again if needed. I am

  • My sleeve surgery was a freaking cakewalk. Not thing to it. I'd do it again tomorrow without a second thought.

Absolutely. It has been lfechanging. I hope you don't wait until you have serious health issues like we did. It is the best thing we have ever done for ourselves. Good luck!

I am a peaceful person but if a medical team showed up and said they planned to do a takeback on my surgery (not medically possible ofc) I would beat them to death with my clawhammer and not regret it.

Sleeve surgery 10/19. BMI is on the lower end at 36. Lost 50lbs 5years ago and have put it all back on. Starting to feel anxious and second guess the decision. Would you do it again?

Absolutely. I started at a much higher BMI than you and am still at a higher BMI than you and I would do it again in a heartbeat.

Absolutely. 100 times over.

I would do it again. Only 6 weeks out - hunger gone, down 40 pounds and more energy than I've had in years.

I wish I could go back and not do it. Just not a good choice for me.

I am sincerely sorry to hear that and hope whatever problems you have get resolved. For me and my husband, it really was lifesaving with the severe health problems. Big hug.

No regrets. No complications. All excess weight gone. Maintaining loss for 7 months now. I changed my eating habits and like the way I eat now. I love that I will always have this restriction. I feel like I eat reasonably sized meals, I just can't overeat which is such a blessing.

My BMI was 35.4 at the time of surgery. I'm 10 weeks post op and don't regret it at all. The first few days were harder than I expected so keep realistic expectations since everyone is different. I thought mine would be a cake walk which set me up for quite a struggle those first few days.
