Is there anyone out there that wishes they would have went with a different type of weight loss surgery or not have gotten it done at all? I'm new to all this but from most of the comments I have read most people seem to be doing well and glad they chose the sleeve.

I am almost 7 weeks post op, 46lbs down and very happy with my decision. The first few days I was MISERABLE! I thought I ruined my life and even now some days are hard but nothing worth it ever easy!

I am having my surgery in two weeks and am getting a bit nervous. I am 100% sure of my decision, but I guess it is the fear of the unknown. How much pain will I be in, will I regret my decision, will something go wrong. After thinking about all of this I still think go for it. I so hope that it turns out the way I am hoping it will - with no complications. I know my life will change drastically on July 25th and I am hoping I am strong enough to deal with all that is coming my way. But reading everyone's posts does make it easier. I havent seen anyone who said that they regretted their decision and I hope a couple of weeks from now, I too, will be writing how happy I am with my decision. Any helpful hints would be appreciated.

I think the sleeve was the best thing I could have done.very easy surgery stayed in the hospital for two days after the surgery due to me sleeping and not trying to take fluids. Third day came home with no problem, off all pain meds the fourth day. It has been very easy I'm in my third week post op. have not had any issue with vomiting or nausea. Walking 2 1/2 miles every morning . The only issue I have is remembering to eat.

Lapband wasn't an option and gastric bypass looked way too complex and I didn't want to deal with malabsorption issues. Sleeve was the only way to go for me and I'd do it again in a heartbeat INCLUDING the two-week preop liquid only diet.
