I believe I had the surgery in 2010 at the age of 43. I was about 310 pounds and 5’8. At my lowest I was 165-170? Today I weigh 187. My high now is about 192. I’ve been able to keep it off. I feel good. It was worth it all! Follow the instructions they give you.

My only concern is that I drink a lot more alcohol than I ever did. They say you can give up one addiction to move on to another. I think it’s true. I have wine almost every night. I was a once a week drinker. Just watch the alcohol. I know someone else who has a real problem and was not a big drinker.

I had the Gastric Bypass. Would I do it again? YES!

Congrats, @jojo777130 on finding a weight that works for you and keeping it off. Are you concerned about your alcohol consumption? Have you tried going alcohol-free for a period of time? A lot of people do it for the month of February in tribute to heart health month.
