This is my story
When I got to 21.7 stones I knew that the over eating just couldn't continue. Having the will power of a knat I decided to undergo Gastric Bypass surgery in Belgium. All went well until back at home I started to feel so ill I couldn't get out of bed. By the time I realised that it wasn't just after surgery pain I was admitted to hospital and found to have an abcess in my stomach caused by the surgery. I never want to go through that again! I was left with an open wound that needed to be dressed every day. But on the bright side I have now healed and lost 8 stone . My life style has changed to include excercise (previously a swear word in my book!) and healthier eating.
Update:- I have now lost 11 stone and am feeling great. I have no problems and can eat anything i like - but stick to mainly heathy stuff now! I am back in full time employment, whereas I couldn't get a job before and now have a healthy social life whereas I never left the house before. The bypass was the best thing that I have ever done (Well apart from my son of course!)
