I'm new to this community but not to trying to lose weight. I am currently considering bariatric surgery. I'm reading and watching videos about the pros and cons of surgery. I would really like to talk to anyone else in a similar situation or anyone who has had bariatric surgery. I am a mother and grandmother, still relatively young. I've been married to an amazing man for 33 years!

Hi. I’ve always been overweight, & never had reached a goal weight. Joined a gym focusing in fitness & weight lifting, comfortable environment. Began to see results, had consultation, & decided to have Tummy Tuck, bit of liposuction & butt lift. Should have “waited”. Down time messed me up, I ate due to Extreme work Stress, Never worked out for 3months now. Gained all my weight back. Too stiff & sore, no mobility to exercise; or another excuse? Would have gone further if I’d continued at the gym without the surgery. Best of luck w your decision. KVFMF10
