I was told by my doctor that they have been very close in weight loss. The sleeve
was done in the past as the first step and not a stand alone procedure But, found
people lost enough weight that the second was not needed. I was approve for the RYN
than changed to the sleeve.I will be sleeved Aug 6. I was told by my doctor that with
any procedure a person can gain the weight back. This is a tool to help weight loss and
the diet needs to be followed to suceed.
Good Luck
Stay positive, I know what you are feeling. My pre-op July 23 sleeve on
Aug 6.Before everyone knows it the holidays will be here and cold in the north.
We will all look back at our sleeve date and say it was worth it !!!!!!!!!
Good Luck my thoughts are with you.
