We were married 28 years ago - and at that time weighed in the 'slightly overweight' BMI... after 28 years of marriage, we both were morbidly obese. Both of us had complications due to our obesity - HTN, asthma, diabetes - just to name a few. Now after 18 months we have lost >320 pounds combined and weigh less than when we got married. Would we do it again - in a heart beat. Any regrets? Yes - that we didn't take care of our selves in the first place. Barring that, a second regret - that we didn't have surgery sooner!!

She answered all questions - and we have had NO unexpected complications from our surgeries.
