[QUOTE="Mattsmom277, post: 281222, member: 4264"] A few days before i recovered my dormant account, someone mentioned in a thread about gastric bypass surgery. Someone else mentioned a old member (that would be me) had the surgery. I just wanted to offer an ear and my own experience if the person is interested. It is for sure a huge undertaking, not to be taken lightly. I have known people Occupational Therapist (OT) not have the best sucess. That is normally those who do take their part of the process seriously and believe surgery is magic. Myself and others who had great sucess, tend to be ones who do their part ALONG with the wonderful benefit of the surgery. I had my surgery in summer 2004 and although I've gained about 10 lbs last 2 years, it has been due to having MS and being less active. I am still at a healthy BMI even with the extra pounds, and once my MS is more under control I will be able to lose that pesky 10 lb gain. Pretty good for a 5 year span I'd say. But at the same time, it is NOT for everyone. Anyhow, just wanted to offer a ear if you'd like one. You could always PM me if you like :) [/QUOTE]
