Hi to new members, especially those consider weight loss surgery.

I had my Roux-en-Y gastric bypass over 10 years ago. I have had my ups and down, but I am at lowest weight for long time and my medical history no longer has "obese".

Preparing for surgery, actual surgery and post-op process is long process. The more education and preparation you do prior to surgery, the better the outcome.

The first step is discuss with primary provider and ask for referral to specialist.

You may also want to check with your insurance company as to coverage.
