I had lapband to MGB revision in late 2014. It is the best thing you can do, much better than the classic bypass. I am at my ideal weight and lost 112lbs in 16 months.

Hi I was also revised to mgb from lapband. I love it also, and yes I do feel sometimes the food gets stuck when I eat to fast just like the band. I think it is the way they do the mgb to avoid cutting through any scars you might have had from the band.

I am 1 month out of surgery with 27lb weight loss. The first 2 weeks I lost about 20 lbs, and the next 2 weeks just about 7lbs.
We MGBers should start posting our weight loss weekly on this site?
It will be interesting to know how everyone else is doing.

You seem happy with yourself, they why go for wls surgery? Ok, maybe to get healthy.....but there is also something called mental health. I was happy with my body and weight and had no medical conditions, just overweight by 120 lbs.
WLS surgery gives your health and life back, able to feel better along with looking better. If presentation is not for you, then you are unique person my friend. I want to look good, wear stuff that does fit me, I was xxl -xxxl, now I am in a large, and yes I have purchased larger shirts where I should have stuck with xl, but I made a goal to fit in the Larger size and achieved it. Satisfaction comes to different people at different levels.

Doing well and eating decent meal sizes . I am down total of 38 lbs on my 2 month anniversary(11/22) and in the last 2 days went over to friends house and I ate pretty much everything , enjoyed liquor and had dropped another 2 lbs. So, the total weight loss is about 40lbs or 18kg

The MGB is much better option over the RNY. It is created by Dr.Rutledge, but insurance won't pay for it, since there is only 16 years worth of research compared to 70 on RNY.
The MGB is more common in France, Germany,India now then any other weight loss surgery.
I had it in India, and so for so good.
