Man I would really look at taking a year learning how to eat/exercise correctly before falling back on any type of surgery. I know several people who have had surgeries and they drop big pounds and they put it right back on again due to the inability to learn how to control their weight on their on and relying on a crutch. I hope you the best of luck but you can easily do this on your own w/o surgery. Opening up your body just exposes you to too many germs/infections and the risks outweigh the gain in my opinion.
