As far as i found out when I did research it makes people more likely to keep the weight down compared to sleeve. And food also has 2 options to travel so its less trouble with vitamin loss. Its also possible to do a full gastroscopy as you have acces to all intestines! And no dumping [emoji846]

Absolutely no problem! I’m glad I saw your post. Since the surgery is relatively unknown I had no one to ask, so I promised myself to answer anyone who were in the same situation ?
1. this was my first (and only) surgery and I’m so happy I chose the sasi bypass! I have had absolutely no problems and minor problems with food (say bye bye to pancakes as your first meal of the day ?)
2. The first month I was able to eat half a yoghurt, so the weight loss came straight ahead. Please remember that there will be times when you don’t loose weight, up to 2-3 months; these are the times when your body changes the most. Embrace these periods instead of hating them ?
3. I lost my hair BIG TIME so whatever you can do to prevent this.. ? And that is the one thing I wish I knew before the surgery. I looked like a muppet at one point ?
I have absolutely no problem recommending this type of surgery for people who are larger than what the sleeve will help you with. I was 150kg and have been steady at around 72kg for a year. I am 180cm. I’m on vacay, so you do the lbs/ft calculation please ?
