Hi...I just wanted to let you know I have an aunt and a neighbor who both had gastric bypass and the results are amazing. However, both surgeries have been very different. My aunt for example has lost 135 pounds with no problems (just looks a bit too thin). My neighbor lost a great amount too not sure exactly how much but i know it is at least 150 pounds but has had complications that keep him being rushed to the hospital every now and then. I have also thought about it myself but from seeing them I don't really know if it is worth it anymore. I dont have a huge desire to be vo thin i look sick. My biggest concern is my boobs and my two stomachs. I have recently took care of my boobs...i had a breast reduction last week and went from a 44DDD to hopefully a C cup after the swelling and I already look and feel more confident. People tell me I look so tiny on top. Now the belly challange begins. What will the insurance company say.....Hopefully yes they will cover it as medical because of irritation and odor. Sorry that may have been a bit TMI but I thought I might give you some other options. I don't know how much weight you want to lose either. For me it isnt how much weight I would like to lose as to I just want to look and feel better.
Good luck |
