I think going for a surgery to lose weight.


I am having such a hard time over the last three to four years to control my weight.  I am pretty much eating too much food during the day and I am not able to control myself when I see food around me.  I am always hungry and now I am overweight 80-100 pounds.  Not only that, I am diabetic for more than seven years and I was hospitalized for almost a diabetic coma last January of this year.

I decided to talk to a bariatric surgery so I booked an appointment with the Weight Loss Surgery Center to speak with a doctor about my eating disorder. He told me that a Bariatric surgery it can be an excellent solution to help me to limit the amount of food I eat daily and facilitate my weight reduction as well. 

But I still undecided of what is the best solution for me because my eating habits and health condition. I know there are several types of bariatric surgeries.  He talked to me about lap-band, gastric sleeve and bypass surgeries.  The most effective surgeries can be gastric sleeve and bypass.

I am going to keep doing some more researches about it until I can decide which surgery is right for me and what about the post recovery process. Do you know someone who has done this surgery in the past?
