I went into the surgery at 274#. Within 1 year, I was down to 112. I got way too thin. Now, 6 years later, I weigh a 138# and am in a size 8. I look and feel the best I have ever felt. It is not a "cure all", I have to watch what I eat and exercise. If you ever overeat and get the dumping, you try your hardest NOT to ever do that again. I paid for it myself, as my ins. did not cover wt. loss surgery.
