Thinking of gastric balloon cant quite make mind up
I live in portsmouth but thinking about having gastric bypass. Do you need to be over a certain weight to have this and do you need to follow a diet or can you eat what you want but obviously feel fuller. I am interested in the cost as this can be pricey + is there other ways to pay such as monthly.
Please get in touch

Are there any people in the UK that have had the gastric bypass that could tell me more about how they are getting on?
I am having mine in less than 2 weeks and would like some feedback just to calm my nerves!!
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
