What you can expect is a whole new, healthy life. I am almost 14 months out and am down 161 pounds. I can do things now that would have never been possible. I won't blow smoke up your butt, this does have it's risks. I do things with my little granddaughters that I never thought I could. You need to weigh (pardon the pun) the pros & cons. As with any other procedure this does carry some risks. But I would rather have died trying (and I was well on my way) than to have died from my weight and co-morbidities. I wish you peace as you decide what to do.
