  12. What is a weight loss ticker?
  13. I haven't seen a surgeon yet or even had a consultation I'm waiting to gather information so that I am informed when I go. From what I am reading it seems that a fair amount of people once they have the sleeve end up going back in and have the DS done can you or anyone explain to me why this occurs?
  14. I am 225 pounds, 5ft 6 inches tall, have type two diabetes, high blood pressure and cholesterol. My mother died from morbid obesity, heart attacks and strokes. I have decided to have WL S but Am still doing research and trying to determine which surgery would be best for me. My BMi is 35. And I am going to have to self-pay. I only want to have to go through this once, even though this forum considers me a lightweight would a DS be a good option for me?
