Did WLS affect your voice?

I know someone one is going to read this and think I'm nut's but here goes, I am a professional singer, I have been trained to sing from my diaphragm and using my abdominal muscles is part of that. Has any one out there had any changes in their singing ability or tone after this major surgery? If so, was it long or short term? Better or Worse? How long did it take to get the abdominal strength back? Did you have to learn new vocal techniques or did the old ones work fine? And do you feel the weight lost helped or hurt your singing? This isn't a deal breaker I just want to know what lies ahead voice wise beyond a sore throat for a week after WLS Thanks, J D
