After meeting with my Surgeon and doing research we both agreed on VSG. My understanding is that Co-morbidities, specifically Diabetes plays into this equation. Luckily I have none of the previously mentioned so Sleeve seemed right.
I would point out that while RNY does add the malabsorption, I read in several articles that after 2 years that advantage subsides considerable and you need to be careful w/ calories.
Good luck with your Journey.
Cheers!

What did your Surgeon say?

My Dr. requires on a 2-3 day liquid diet before surgery so If you get back on it today you should be totally fine. Good Luck

10 hours ago, AquaDeMimi said:Hey! He is one of the doctors from the group that I was recommended to. I was actually referred to Dr Schmidt. 2 ppl I know had Dr Eid and one choose Dr Trivedi. I am going to a seminar in December!
Dr. Schmidt, Trivedi and Ewing ran the HUMC seminar. Very informative.
I met with Trivedi today. Very nice man, lots of patience with all my questions. I also did my nutritional evaluation with their in house Nutritionist. All went smooth. Now, six months for pre-op diet and I should be all set.

I have my first appointment with Dr. Trivedi from Advanced Laparoscopic Associates in Paramus coming soon. I attended the HUMC seminar and was very impressed. My GP recommended Dr. Trivedi, but everywhere I ask, I hear the same thing. He is the goto guy in the area.
Per the Lapband, everything I read kinda pointed to VSG as the best for success. Everyone's journey is different. Good Luck!
