  11. Thank you so much for responding. You have done an awesome job! I am considering going to bypass from sleeve because I too have developed GERD. my insurance doesn't cover the surgery so before I took a big chunk out of my income I wanted to make sure I was doing the right thing. best of luck on your journey!
  12. Anyone have revision from sleeve to bypass? I would like to hear your story? Ups, downs, how it is working for you?....any information you are willing to share with me... Thank you

    Hi, I am considering going from the sleeve to bypass due to GERD . I am just starting researching. Can you answer a few questions for me? Is your weight loss about the same as if you had a virgin bypass or is it different due to the previou surgery? Is is much different from the Sleeve?How much have you lost? Did you have to go back and forth with insurance to cover it? Did you have to meet the same requirements? Thank you for your time.
  14. Congratulations! I can't wait to join you!

  17. oh no didnt mean to freak u out---seems like u r doing great on the liquids like most do- My Doctor told me to gain on a liquid is very rare! i am going to read Matthew 5:29-30!
  18. Hi, I was banded on 02/14/09 I started only telling my Husband and kids. I didnt want any negativity going around. I knew what I was doing was necessary for me regardless what anyone said....I have not to this day told my husband how much I weigh-when it was time for them to weigh me I made him step out-I made sure the Doctors and nurses and staff wouldn't tell him. They wrote it REALLY BIG on my medical chart!!! I finally told my mother and sisters and a select few about having the surgery-since it ws already done-what more could anyone say!!!!!!! Do what you need to do for you Be blessed
  19. That is amazing! your not going to beleive this but.... when I went on all liquids I actually gained 5 lbs

  21. I am so excited for you! Next Wednesday you will be in my prayers! As soon as you feel up to it next week please let us know how you are doing!
