  1. In my opinion, sleeve appears to be most common these days and has the lowest surgery risk. Bypass seems to be good if you suffer from reflux or want the dumping reaction in order to avoid sweets. DS seems to be recommended for higher BMIs and more extreme cases. I chose sleeve because I still want to be able to eat most foods normally once I hit goal, just in smaller quantities. If you haven't already, check out the obesity coverage website for lots of good info.

    Dr Jawad did my surgery as well. He's amazing




  2. I honestly woke up and asked if the surgeon put staples or tape on my incisions!! Lol... I woke up very delirious and out of it. I honestly can't remember all of it because I was still under anesthesia. I didn't have any gas pain, I had X Gas strips and a heating pad and I'm sure that helped a lot! Good luck to you
