HI Everyone, I am having the loop ds on 11/20/17 I would love to connect with people that are going through this. Is this your first WLS or a revision? This is my second. I had RNY back in 1999 kept off the weight through two babies two years ago,(16 years later) i started to gain weight and it just kept going. I find it hard to find people who have or is going to have the loop DS. most have had the traditional and most are very protective over it.

I have found that some are very passionate about which DS they have had. i have my loop on 11/20, stay in touch let me know how you are doing. twomoreyou5@gmail.com.

Hi how did the surgery go, excuse me if you answered and i have not seen it. I am having the loop Ds 11/20

My daughter is 16 and she will be having surgery hopefully in November. I wish at 16 i could have changed my life in this way. Her doctors are on board. I talked to a psychiatrist he said why not as long as it is what she wants,and we help her after to get acquainted with the new her. It will take time for her to know that new person. She struggled already her whole life with obesity, she doesn't know herself Any other way. He said it might be hard at first for her to see herself thin. She is so excited I have seen a huge mood shift. She was I it feels like a light she can see. That she will not always be fat. She's happy.

I'm waiting to here me and my daughter for November 20 I'm doing a revision my daughter is a first time sleeve. Hope he can do us both.

Ok that's where I did my original with Dr smith he's now deceased. I'll call to see if he can do my revision. Thank you.

Im sorry if i missed the post but have you had the surgery. ?

I hope that all went great, please check in when you can

I have had the Gastric bypass 16 years ago, I am not going to have the DS, (i am looking into it). I kept my weight off for a few years even after having 2 children back to back, i did not gain to much weight but whatever i gained during the pregnancies came right back off.I have a few hernia surgeries. I did not start to really gain until the 7 to 8 year mark, that is when i started having to really work hard at dieting again. In the past two years, I have continually gained i exercise, eat pretty much on track. I am looking to have the DS. I wish this would have been told to me back then that i had a choice., from what i have read the DS has a greater success rate in the long run. I am worried they will not let me have any of the surgeries. I would go with the DS. I will pay out of pocket again.
