Weight Loss Surgery Gastric Band/Sleeve/Balloon

Hello!

New to mumsnet thought I'd ask for opinions on weight loss surgery.
I am 27 years old and nearly 19 stone. I have tried every diet going for the last 7 years and I have failed to stick to any. My lowest weight for the last 7 years was just under 15 stone after a shake diet, however piled on all the weight and more when I started back on actual food.

I am thinking of going private for weight loss surgery I would not want to do this on the NHS as it is my fault I'm obese.

Does anyone have any experience on what company to use? Obviously I want to do it the proper way and would need a finance deal as cannot afford it outright.

Also can you please tell me if you have done weight loss surgery did you regret it? Was it worth it? I am quite scared to be honest I've read so many stories of people not being able to eat for weeks, dumping, bands not working, sickness and shakes. Any advice I'd be grateful.

thank you
