hey well done on your weight loss why should you not have what you want you made a major decision to have the op follow what your heart tells you and do what YOU want to do good luck Bev x

good luck with the new surgeon. I pray everything works out for you Mary

Beth, I am sorry about your troubles. I will pray that the new surgeon has the answers you need and that insurance will cover everything. All my best, Kathy

I'm one year post-op and I stopped losing weight after three months. All I lost was 42 pounds and now I've gained back 10. My surgeon won't do anything. He says it's because I'm depressed. My depression is under better control than it has been in years. Besides, how does that affect weight loss after bi-pass? Most people who have by-pass are somewhat depressed. I'm seeing a new surgeon tomorrow that does revisions. Pray he can help me. Beth
