Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass  |  Would you do this all over again? I am asked this question all the time. Would you do this all over again if you could go back? My answer YES YES YES YES! This surgery has changed my life. I feel so good now physically , i am still working on the emotionally part but i am getting there. I am a new person. I am healthier then i have been in a long time and i actually now have things to look forward to. My children i know are happy for me too. I am sure they are proud when their friends give me compliments. I am smiling alot more and i am really starting to like what i see looking back at me in the mirror. So YES YES YES i would do it again in a heartbeat! What about you?

Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery. Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.  |

| WLS Mentor  | I've heard one person say and another through somebody else say that they would not do it again. The first has had major medical complications that she didn't have before the surgery and is miserable for that reason, and the other is so obsessed about food and weight loss that she speaks of thinks of nothing else. Still out of the hundreds of people i've spoken to through this site and others 2 isn't such a big deal. I know my life will improve and so even if i have health problems after h***i have health problems now. it's great to hear people say that they would do it over again though, kind of encouraging.

Height: | Thanks Lisa. I am glad to be back. I would have posted more last night but my internet kept going screwy on me. I feel like each and every day right now truly is going better and is a new miracle to me. I am so excited to be on the loosing side now and be able to hopefully start speaking from experience to help others like everyone here has helped me. Janae |

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass |  Definitley!! I'm only 10days post op....I can say without a doubt! YES...Definitely!! In the 10days...I am changed....and thinking differently...I know this will be a miracle for my life...and give me such freedom with my little girl!! Esp. with us moving to NYC...it scares me to think I couldn't keep up with her! I won't take her to the park here in Frisco (north Dallas) for fear if she ran and wouldn't stop I wouldn't be able to catch her...or protect her adequately! Yes...I would do it a million times over!!

| WLS Mentor | thanks guys these are good things to know. i have only heard of 2 people who regret this decision, one because she can't stop losing weight resulting in major medical complications and had to have it reversed and one who has become obssessed with losing weight.
