If you knew then what you know now, would you do it all over again? Please feel free to be completely honest.

have VSG? heck yeah! i was provided with poor pain control for the first 3 days post op, and even if i knew that was going to happen, and could not change it, i'd do it again in a heart beat. i have been given a new life i am grateful for every day!

Absolutely, just sooner! I've never been happier, healthier, and had such an amazing experience along the way! It is much easier than I anticipated, or maybe I am just used to my lifestyle now. It feels so good to feel SO good!

100% YES!!!

I wish we did know more back in 1991 when I had mine, but through the years I had managed to have 2 kids and kept off the weight.  It's only been the past couple years I started have food stuck issues and resorted to what I now know is called "slider foods" and regained some.  
My staples have now come undone and my surgeon is giving me a revision to the sleeve, but I would take whichever procedure over again because I am healthy and enjoying life!!! 
The best decision I've ever made was having WLS.

absolutely!!!!!  I am only 3 1/2 months out and there have been days when I have said why did I do this to myself but I feel sooooo much better and have so much more energy than I did 4 months ago.   Most of the bad days were the first few weeks after surgery.  I have not had a bad day in a while.  I had a rough time the first few weeks after surgery but I would defintely do it all over again!!!

 I AM CURIOUS!  THE DELETED RESPONSES, ARE THEY NEGATIVE?   I CERTAINLY HOPE THAT ALL POINTS OF VIEW ARE ALLOWED IN HERE.  I WANT STRAIGHT UP ANSWERS!
