Yes I do the same. My cousin and my best friend had wls. My friend had it done 21-25 years ago and suffered major complications. I didn't know her at her heaviest but she says she was more than 400 lbs. I met her 20 years ago and she was around 230. She was very negative about wls. Then 4 years ago my cousin had it done. I really didn't think she needed the surgery because i didn't think she was that overweight. She was also young around 22 years old. Most of all she had the most beautiful face. After she had the surgery her body looked beatiful but her face looked awful. She looked sick. She claims she has been sick since she had the surgery. I have decided to have a lap band put in. The reason is I am having more and more problems related to my obesity. It has come to the point I am having the surgery for health reasons. I know I eat more than other people. I don't binge but I am still hungry after a reg meal. I am praying that after the surgery it will curb my appitite(*sp). But looking at peoples pictures and web site is an inspiration. Because of what my best friend went through I cant talk to her about wanting to do it because she is against it and so is my cousin. So it is good to read and see positive stories.
