My motivation? my kids, my health, my happiness.(I have sleep apnea). I've been considering Gastric Bypass for years but i was always too scared. I’m still a little nervous don’t get me wrong but it’s worth it . I’m currently 41 years old I weight 234, when I was younger I was about 160 lbs., fit, healthy, till I turned 35, I don’t have to lose that much but I have tried EVERYTHING!! Dr. Jorge Sosa will be doing my Surgery very soon. I pray for a fast recovery. Anyone out there that has had this sugery? HOW DO YOU FEEL???? : )

I agree only because she isn't over a hundred pounds with medical health problems such as diabetes, high blood pressure, nor high cholesterol

Hi Belliss,
Welcome! Wow, December will come around in no time, you must be excited and probably a little nervous!
We do have a Weight Loss Surgery page, which has some guides written with input from board certified WLS surgeons. You may find some of them useful to read up on!
Please do keep us updated with your progress! I'll be having the same procedure sometime next year.
Good luck with your surgery, bellkiss! I look forward to following your journey. :)
