Gastric bypass over sleeve
I just had my 2nd WLS from lapband ....to bypass..I am not sure where Scottmyself got his data...incorrect. All I can say is do as much research as you can to see which procedure matches you and your lifestyle and go from there,I am not interested in a third operation.I went for the "Gold Standard "and I am very happy. I also have friends that have chosen the sleeve....one is doing great the other is struggling.YOU have to really talk to your surgeon and do what you think is the best fit. I made a decision the first time and it sucked...2nd time I finally picked bypass which suits me better.

Revision surgery hours away!
On my way to the hospital.I did not sleep all night.The day is finally here and I hopefully will by the grace of getting GOD I will come out of this surgery victorious and ready to spring ahead on my new improved life.I have suffered with the lap band since 2004 .I never came close to the amount of weight loss I needed.I have dealt with sliming,frequent trips to the bathroom to puke,carrying plastic bags to stop off on the side of the road to vomit.Obsessed with eating...what could I eat to avoid an episode....weight gain....constant pain and protrusion on or around the port area and acid reflux to no end. I lived with it for so long because I was convinced I could make it work.Other health problems ensued DVT ,gallbladder,breast cancer,hysterectomy and PCOS.These were immediate needs that I attended to with band issues simultaneously.I really tried to make it work....All the weight has returned. I need a reboot in my life and this is my new chapter ..."I want me back"!!! Wish me luck...this site and everyone has really informed me with such useful information and shared experiences..I am grateful. Almost there.....surgery scheduled for 11:30....psyched!
