Is it worth it? Did I make the right decision?

Totally worth it, just wish I had done it earlier !

I am going to be one hell of a sexy sixty year old :P

Yes. A longer, healthier and happier life, more NSVs than you could shake a stick at, better self esteem, comorbidities that are lessened or gone, etc..

My only regret is not having WLS sooner.

It's worth it. You'll come to realize alot about yourself you thought gone or find a you you always wanted to b.

Sleeved 8/23/16. HW 271.5 SW 246.9 CW 205.1 I'll be in onerdland by Christmas. I'm 55. I wish I had done this shortly after the birth of my second child 13 years ago. I had been almost crippled by pain in my knees (I need them replaced). They still hurt, but not nearly as bad - I don't need narcotics for the pain. I have more energy. I don't have clothes - I'm spending a lot of time in thrift shops because I'm dropping through sizes in about a month. Started at size 20-22 pants now hovering between 14 and 12. I have about 50 pounds to my goal. I was scared when I started - the week before surgery I almost backed out. This was the second best decision I've ever made. (Marrying my hubby was the best!)

Hi Dear!

I know this strugle is normal. I'm finishing my preoperative exams ... I want myself back.

I have been thinking the same thing. I am currently only 11 days post op so I know that it will get better but I am still having some stomach pain and I really miss food! I even still have trouble getting enough Water down. But it has got to be worth it because I know that I will continue to heal and things will get better. I am already down 16 pounds in 11 days.
