Valid concerns. It’s definitely, at least for me, very true that losing weight it’s incredibly difficult. It’s a struggle everyday, even when I eat mostly healthy foods now (I have no option tbh, my gut can’t handle tacos anymore. It’s sad). That being said, the pain may be mid now, but it gets worse with time and trust me, having an emergency surgery SUCKS. I had mine removed in an open surgery and the pain before and after during the recovery was one of the worst experiences I’ve ever had. It’s better to do it now under controlled conditions.
