    Yeah I had Bariatric Surgery. There are many different types of surgery. For particular you should take an advice of Surgeon. I had LAP BAND surgery. I lose weight 50 to 60 percent in 2 years. It is more advisable to do. All surgery have their own side effects but every body suits different things so ask your bariatric surgeon and get it.

    I had a bypass 3 years ago and never looked back. Yes there are long term complications, yes it is HARD HARD work but so worth it.
    I saved for mine, got no funding at all and it SAVED MY LIFE!

    I would be happy to talk to you about it, just add me as a friend.

    It is NOT an easy option by any means and changes your life in mostly good ways but some in bad, know the risks, make a judgement, its not for everyone but I wouldn't change a moment of my journey!

    To the OP... I noticed your signature says you are 5'9" and currently weigh 188. Is this correct? If so, you aren't very far from a healthy BMI. I'm not sure why bariatric surgery is even a consideration here if your signature info is right - bariatric surgery is for significant weight loss, not that last 20-25 pounds.
