Welcome, Bonnie! I won't hold your hand, 'cause my wife's around here somewhere and I don't want her to get the wrong impression,  but we're glad you've joined our merry family.
My wife had RNY last month. When I first mentioned it a couple of years ago for me, she was dead set against it, but I went ahead and got the process started, and in a few months she came around to "letting" me have surgery. She watched my results and decided that's what she wanted for herself, so she's doing well in her own right now. If you see Peanut around, that's her. (Needless to say, she has her husband's full support, too!)
Read as much as you can here, use the search feature and research everything you can think of. What you can't find, just ask and you'll only get a dozen or two responding with their experiences. You'll like it here!
