I had the sleeve done in Feb 2012 and never lost enough weight either! On May 30 I had a revision to ByPass. On the sleeve, I went up and down, highest weight was 252 when I had the sleeve (I am 5 ft 4 in so I am morbidly obese too!)....I could never lose enough to be in "onederland", lowest I got down to was about 212lbs.....over the years my weight went mostly up.....even though I couldn't eat very much at once, I tended to graze.....got up to 242 lbs and decided to get the bypass done. I had to self-pay my sleeve surgery. With my bypass, I also had a hernia repair so my ins covered a good part of the bypass surgery costs. I have lost 20 lbs.....and I started exercising again about 4-5 days week.
"Starting over" and doing the bypass is a personal choice.....I felt I had to do it......I am a very slow loser....but I feel in a year from now that I will have a good success story to report!
Good Luck with your decision!
