I wish I knew then...
what I know now.
Hello-
I'm 32 years old, and am making a suggestion. Anyone looking into this surgery, please make sure you consult your physician on the topics of addiction transfers, and mental stability and mental being after surgery.
Trust me, you will transfer your food addictions, and, just because you lose the weight, doesn't mean your mind follows as quickly as you are losing.
Obviously everyone is different, but these are two topics I was not mentored on before surgery from my surgeon's office. There was also no suggestion made to take care of these issues if they were to pop up later down the line.
Good luck-
Lizlo
