So.. you have to take supplements for the rest of your life regardless of which surgery you choose. Unless you want all your hair and teeth to fall out. High chances of developing Ricketts Disease as well... Take your Vitamins people!

I want to get the Sleeve but surgeon is pushing Roux En Y

VSG and the Mirena really have nothing to do with each other nor will they make either one work less etc

I have FEP BCBS it tool exactly the whole waiting time. I called every day! It took fifteen days!

If you have Gerd in any capacity Roux En Y is the way to go. VSG is proven to worsen GERD! Also I noted that you have diabetes in your discussion. Roux En Y would almost eliminate it. Due to the re-route of the intestines. Trust your surgeon - You would hate to get VSG only for your GERD to be exacerbated and have to revise to Roux En Y- Hence increasing your risk for PE. Good luck!

My mother's response was... "your so vain, just get off your butt and exercise." Mind you I do 15,000 plus steps per day just at work as a nurse. I can completely relate. Do what feels right to you. Don't worry about what others say. My first appointment with the surgery center is on July 8th 2016. I'm doing this for me, and no one else!! Hugs Sent from my SM-N910V using the BariatricPal App

When people put their toilet paper on the roll wrong. It's annoying, and I always have to fix it at my friend's house's ???????? Sent from my SM-N910V using the BariatricPal App

How much have you lost so far? Sent from my SM-N910V using the BariatricPal App

I always ask myself have I exhausted every Avenue to lose weight possible... I have. I think it's perfectly normal to question yourself about this surgery. This is life CHANGING!!! Which is so scary to those of us who have used food for comfort etc... your making the right decision... keep moving forward. What do you have to lose by getting the surgery? Nothing at all!!

How much was your starting weight.. etc? Sent from my SM-N910V using the BariatricPal App

I said this very same thing to myself the other day. After struggling for the last four years trying to get the weight off, only to lose some and gain 10 pounds more on top of what I lost.. I know how you feel. The end is near.. while my last nutrition appointment will be mid- September... my surgery should be scheduled with a couple of weeks after that. I am ready. Ready to live the life I have been dreaming about for four years! Sent from my SM-N910V using the BariatricPal App

You look perfect. Trust us when we say that! I know it is hard to see what others see. We are our own worst critics. You've done a fantastic job. If you are experiencing anxiety please speak with a psychologist about it. Hugs Sent from my SM-N910V using the BariatricPal App
