WORTH IT$18,000
It's been a while since I been on here. Thanks to all on here who encouraged me and left uplifting words for me. Life is good, all I can say is water and exercise... I had my ups and Downs..but wouldn't change a thing...well worth the sacrifice. I'll add some additional posts about my setbacks, stalls and progress soon. I Received help from so many discussion forums. I have to give back. Individuals are having this surgery everyday and need to know our knowledge from our experience... Posted the before & after. What do you think?

You will get you appetite back. My doctor prescribed me appetite suppressants for three months...worked fine...and keeping my stomach small...it possible to stretch it out.. we don't want any weight gain back.. for the depression, I did go to a therapists.. I had alot of unforgiveness, regret, pain from bad relationships and the hurt I felt from my mother's death. That stuff had to be dealt with..I'm better now..off all medications and guiet Happy..Oh! and I'm single..and I love it..I finally love me...
