Ok, so I am thinking about having surgery to HELP me lose weight. I know I will not have surgery then POOOOOOFFF I wake up slim, and never again have to struggle. I am not niave, I know it will be hard work.

I have been large now for almost half my life and my mum (50+) stills struggles to lose weight.

So I have been contemplating surgery ie lapband or gastric sleeve.

I am wondering if any others have had either procedure done, know of anyone or have an opinion, please share.
I wanna hear it all, the good and the bad.

Thanks
