    I’m so nervous and excited at the same time! But what I’d really like know is who has actually remission from having Diabetes or High Blood Pressure?

    You could search sleeve vs bypass. There are lots of posts on this topic. , and you'll get lots of good advice. I picked bypass because I have GERD and also wanted the possible dumping to keep me in line. Best wishes to you.

    It's talked about a lot here on this forum. Check out the posts of people who've had each and the pros and cons of each. It's a personal decision that's up to you. I chose sleeve and I'm happy with it.

    I was going to suggest the same thing - just do as much research as you can. They're both good surgeries, and I've known people who've been very successful with both. I chose bypass because I had GERD pre-surgery, and I didn't want to risk it getting worse (sleeve can cause - or increase - GERD in some people, but not all. But I didn't want to take the risk). If it hadn't been for the GERD, I'm not sure which one I would have picked. I'm sure I would have been happy with either.

    I’m still undecided on which to choose! The option of a Sleeve and Bypass was given to me. I’m leaning towards the Bypass because I’m anxious to get rid of the fat fast! But... is fast really a good thing? Uuughhh I need advice!

    Don't feel discouraged I am a slow looser to. I am two weeks out and when I went home from the hospital I was 9lbs more than the day of surgery. Today I am down 11 lbs since surgery, 22 lbs in total when I add the weight I lost during the liver fast and 27lbs since October. I felt discouraged but my co workers are telling me that I am loosing weight although they don't know that I had surgery lol. My cloths are fitting me loose and I had to remove 2 links from my watch.
    We will get there.

    There is usually a 3week stall where your body is still healing from major surgery, keep following the plan they gave you and it will kick up very soon. Just stay strong and focus on healing your new amazing tool. Once you are able to really work out again it will start melting off.
