I'd like to hear from post-op lightweights.

My BMI is 36, and I'm considering WLS, probably the LAP band. I'd like to hear from others about my size about your experiences: are you glad you had the surgery? Are you happy with the amount of weight loss? Was it worth the long-term changes you had to make since the amount of weight loss isn't as great as it is for some other patients? I know I can't lose significant weight by dieting, so my choices are either surgery or accepting myself as I am (including diabetes and other co-morbidities). Thanks!
