A close friend of mine had it last summer. She is doing good now, but it's been quite a journey for her...she's has 3 kids, all under 6! The biggest challenge for her was eating solid foods. Post-surgery she was on a strict all liquid diet for 6 weeks and when it came time to try solids, she threw them all up . She can now eat some solids, but cannot go near any carbs. She cannot eat bread, pasta, potatoes, etc. She says it's very challenging. She doesn't regret having the surgery, but it's totally changed her life, and though the weight is coming off, it's an everyday struggle.
