I'm in Philadelphia, PA. 4 weeks out. Had surgery 5-10-2012.

Hi I'm in reading. I was planning on the sleeve, but now my dr recommended bypass due to reflux. So now I'm going crazy trying to find out more about bypass. I was so focused on the sleeve. Hope it goes well or you.

My dr recommended the same thing, as I had horrible reflux. I knew from the start I didn't want the bypass though. I still went with the sleeve, and I couldn't be happier. It's been almost 9 months, I'm down 100 lbs, I still take prilosec daily as a preventative measure, but reflux hasn't been an issue.

Hi everyone. I am getting sleeved on Thursday, Nov 29 in Harrisburg at Community Hospital. Dr DiMarco from Pinnacle Weight Loss Center is performing

Operation. So far Pre op has been a breeze. It is getting so close, only a couple of days, many mixed feelings but mostly anxious for results. I started at my high

Of 307, dropped to 302 and now two days prior I am at 295. I am looking forward with a positive outlook to a new life with dealing with food responsibly.

Who was your Dr? Do you live in the area? Maybe we can get together for some encouragement & exercise? How are you feeling?

I had Dr. Ceppa and yes, I live in the area... Exeter to be precise. I would love to have someone to talk and walk with! I feel amazingly better today, but it's been a little rough up to this point. How about you? Tell me all!

Done! But I haven't told anyone, nor do I intend to tell anyone, that I've had this done, so please don't mention it on my timeline.

We have a mutual friend... My son's girlfriend!
