Thinking About Gastric Sleeve Surgery

I am new here and I am a beginner when it comes to Forums. I am here because I am seriously considering getting gastric Sleeve Surgery. I am 28 and I weight 260lbs. I had a miscarriage 2 years ago and put on alot of weight because of pregnancy and feeling depressed.

I would like to know what are the main pros and cons of the surgery and if anyone has any advice they could give me I am more than open to it. I would highly appreciate it. I have hear about vomiting and Gerd and wanted to know how bad it is. Also how small are the portions the first month post opt. Also what is the post-309763-14834518745329_thumb.jpgaverage amount of weight most people my size lost the first month?

Thank you.

@@Seevan I appreciate your honesty and I am definitely going to look into it. Nothing is set in stone yet. I do love food however I do wanna change because I feel like I have an unhealthy relationship with food. But im scared of how hard that change will be im not gonna lie. However I do wanna change.

I definitely feel like food should not be my comfort and my outlet. So I know if my eating to cover up my issues I have alot of underlying issues. Which is why I definitely plan on seeing a psychiatrist first.
