I am considering having a gastric bypass done?!

I am considering having a gastric bypass done?

The surgeon in my area does this procedure with a laproscope for faster healing and a less invasive procedure. Is there anyone out there who can comment on having this done? Do you know anyone who has had this done? I am looking for any information you can give!

A good place to start would be http://www.obesityhelp.com/.

I had it done almost a year ago, laproscopically, and it was one of the best decisions of my life. I am down 180 pounds, all of my co-morbidities are gone, and I feel 20 years younger.

As for healing times, I had the surgery on a Wednesday, I was home on Saturday, and on Monday, I walked a mile.

Best of luck.
