comments from post bariatric surgery patients?

I’m scheduled to have bariatric surgery and I’m wanting to hear what kind of results patients have experienced after their surgery. Much appreciated. Want to hear good & bad experiences.

I have to Have Surgery to Correct a Previous Weight Loss Surgery. How Can I Keep This From People?

2 and a Half years ago I had Lap Band weight loss surgery. It was done by two Docs that had good reputations and after a couple years of research, they were the only ones that took my insurance. They completely screwed up the surgery and I never lost weight, so I didn’t have to tell friends. Only my family knows. Now I am in extream pain and having a surgery to try to repair it. This time I have one of the best Doctors in the world operating on me.

The thing is I don’t want some people to know that I’m having a correction to weight loss surgery. When I had the first surgery, I was riduculed by several people saying that I took the easy way out. Believe me, it hasn’t been easy. I’ve tried every diet in the world plus having a nighmare surgery and months of pain only to be told by those who know that it is my own fault.
It’s going to take several weeks to recover. What do I tell the people that won’t understand, like aquaintences, coworkers, & some of my friends that just don’t get It??

I Just Saw an Ad for "Fullbar", What Other Parameters Determine Hunger Besides-?

- "Fullness"?

I don’t Hear Much About Hoodia Anymore.
Thanks K, I Think Many people Think Weight Loss is "Easy", a Myth Long Perpetuated By Advertisers (Revealing their Low Opinion of their Audience). In my Estimation, Not So Simple, Now, Ultimately it is a Matter of "Calories In, Calories Out". It has Been Experience, that Overweight people, for the Most Part, Know it, and Know Full Well What Needs to Be Done. Again, Not So Simple, e. g., I read an Abstract of a Paper, a Little While Back (I can’t Find it), Demonstrating a Connection Between High Calorie Foods and Addiction Behavior (Consistent With a "Homeostasis Model" of Addiction). The Problem With "Fullbar" is that it Greatly Simplifies a Complex Problem.
