I have been obese since 9th grade. I have a family history of Diabetes, Congestive Heart Failure, High Blood Pressure, etc. I have been on many diets and exercise programs just to keep from gaining more weight & to avoid bringing on these family traits. Unfortunately, just like many of you I would maybe loose a few pounds then regain all of it back with some added weight. I started researching Gastric Bypass Surgery about 1 year ago and informed my doctor about the desire to get the tool to assist me in finally getting the weight off. Happily he signed me up for the required classes to help me familiarize myself with the surgery better. I do have to say I have learned so many things that will assist me in my overall goal. So for the next 18 months I will be leaving the next person to inquire about this surgery my experience and I hope it helps him or her as much as you all have helped me.
