I will give you feedback but you may not like it. I've known 4 people who had it done. One developed near-fatal complications after surgery. None of them kept the weight off after several years.

All gastric surgery can leave a person with lasting gastric issues to deal with.

I would ask for the 5-year success rate, if I was considering this huge surgery.

I wish I had something wildly positive to post. I know personally how it to deal with obesity. I strongly believe that there should be more help out there than there is, something not so huge as major surgery.

If you go for it, I will be hoping you will have great success!
