Welcome

Regarding the DS

Do have diabetes, high cholesterol, high Blood pressure or sleep apnea? If so there is a high probability they will be gone (my diabetes was out of control and had high bp and fairly high cholesterol....after the DS I went off all meds 3 days after surgery and have an A1C of 4 (7 is diabetic and I was 9 before surgery), Cholesterol went from 200-220 and is now around 100, BP with meds was 120'sh/85, without meds it is 90/65

Do you want to lose the most weight you can and keep it off? The DS is the way to go

Do you like to eat? I do and eat more now than I did pre DS and I went from 360 to 190 now.


I am biased, but the DS is the way to go. Sure you have to take vitamins or you will be in trouble big time health wise, but it is no big deal at all for me.

Good luck with your research and choice!
 
I am not familiar with DS, so I have a lot to read & research. Thank you for welcoming me!
