Hi, just wondering if anyone here has had any of the weight loss surgeries available. I'm going with my hubby tomorrow morning when he is going to ask for a referal to the specialist.

He's been considering it for a while and when I asked him about it recently, it was like all he needed was a 'suggestion' sort of push to make him say he was interested.

Wish us luck, though I know this is only an appointment for him to get a referral and the next step is to go to an informational class which they hold once a month. THEN the real appointments start. At least I think that is the way it all goes. I just want him to feel good about himself again like he did years and pounds ago.

Please share any story you have. Especially as the spouse/caregiver and not the one having the surgery. He isn't a good patient! I know from him having had a total knee replacement years ago! LOL. After the surgery, my daughter said to me "we'll pray for you mom"

Thanks.
