I thought about the surgery and know 2 people that had it including my sister.

Weigh the pros and cons. The gastric bypass changes your body A LOT. Read up on it and talk to people. There are a lot of web sites where you can connect with people that had it. There is always risk involved with surgery. I am not sure I could go through with it after reading the negatives of it and talking with the people I knew.

The doctor just put me on Byetta which some say it chemical gastric bypass. I have lost about 9 lbs in a week on it. I had gained about 20 on Avandia so anything after that will be a plus. That is how I found this site while doing research on Byetta.
