My mother had it done some years ago, and the procedure was done incorrectly. Now she can't seem to eat very many solid foods, and the size condition is by no means fixed. On that note the problems there are not 100% attributable to the surgery, it may just be... her... On the other hand one of her friends had it done, and besides being painfull, she's lost a serious amount of weight and continues to eat and live healthier. I would reccomend attempting the Atkins diet before taking this on though, you never know what it can do for you.
