Getting Cold Feet...

Aug 21, 2011

I received a call from by manager last night whose wife had gastric bypass surgery 2-3 years ago.  Apparently her bowel twisted, which the doctor's office mention could happen as a result of the surgery.  As a result, she had to have emergency surgery. 

Now I'm confused and more concerned...is this a sign that maybe I shouldn't have it? 
I don't really want to bring this up with my family and friends bec/ then I know they will probably try to discourage me from having it.  But I'd like someone to talk about it with.  

Do the benefits of the surgery outweigh the risk?

I'm also concerned because I started thinking yesterday about how hard it is going to be for  me to adjust...I LOVE Food!  I look forward to eating and I usually eat whatever I crave.  I'm going to have to find something else to anticipate throughout my day and that's going to be hard.
