Is this surgery right for me?

I am a 23 year old law student in NY. I currently am 246, 5'5", overweight my entire life. Many of the stories I have been reading are about people over 300lbs...I am so happy that they found the answer thru surgery. I am so afraid of gaining more. I am relatively healthy and although my quality of life is not 100%, I am also not an extremely unhappy person. I just want to lose weight forever, which I have not been able to do...does anyone have any words of wisdom for me? I'm thinking the surgery may be too extreme for me. I appreciate it, thankx.
