Lots of people having moments when they regret the surgery. I know I did. Occasionally I still do. Like when I eat something and get nauseous. Most days, though, I believe this surgery was the best thing I ever did. Despite the problems, I'm healthier than I've ever been.

It's true that you will have to eat carefully and take vitamins for the rest of your life. That is a big thing. By getting the surgery, you made a huge committment to your health. You'll have to follow through on that. I look at it more as an inconvenience than anything else. If others can manage it, you can too.
