Yes Jane' date='

It was an important topic...

I'm not sure how it deteriorated overnight.

But it's a shame that it did...[/quote']

I didn't say "blah blah blah" once!

Yeah I'm not sure why someone would delete all of their postings when they could possibly be helpful to someone later on. The op originally sounded like he was trying to share some information, but clearly sharing was not the intention or the posts would not have been altered.

I agree!! I was really looking for information on this and wanted to get others opinions on the subject! I know that ultimately it's up to me and my dr but I want to be sure I have thought about every aspect before making any decisions about another surgery. And I haven't made my mind up. So I have experienced only a 5lbs weight loss for the last 2 months, that's not to say my body might kick back into gear and I may go on to lose weight. It's just scary when I'm still at 305lbs and I'm already slowing way down. I'm happy if I can keep losing, don't get me wrong, I just wanna be sure my body isn't preparing to quit losing all together. Because then yes I would feel like a failure.

There is a DS forum on obesity help. You might find answers there.

Yes, sadly, some people are very childish...better known as trolls.

My mom had the DS as a single procedure so I'm well versed in that as well as the sleeve. Feel free to pm me if you have anymore questions :)

Thank you! My dr wants me to get ds but i insisted i want the sleeve so he said i can do it in 2 parts... hopefully i have good weight loss w sleeve that i dont have to do the 2nd part... rerouting scares me.
