Well I had Gastric Sleeve surgery on Nov 25, 2009. I'm down to 307lbs as of today, actually have been that since mid December. I was 322 the day before surgery and 353 on November 1, 2008. So already just short of 50 lbs and it has made a huge difference in my life. The sugery was relatively easy compared to other medical interventions I have had. I was very leary of surgery though as I didn't want to change my body and be sick. I also have Idiopathic Intercranial Hypertension or Psuedotumor Cerebri, which is extra spinal fluid on your brain. Causes severe headaches, nausea, dizziness and can cause blindness. So far I'm lucky my eyesight has not worsened and I can see fairly well, good enough to drive most days. Well I'll write more tomorrow, I like this site and I'm glad I found it today.
