Hi ladies!! I was considering the sleeve until the last seminar I went to. The surgeon there wasn't a fan bc he said the long term results/data wasn't there and he didn't have confidence in it for, say, 10 years out. May I ask what u all were dissatisfied with in ur sleeves? I'm going to get RNY but was curious about ur experiences.

Sure well I'm almost 7 months out and only down 35/38 lbs It depends on how much Water I drink or don't drink. I eat 800-1000 cals a day work out 5 days a week 80-100 Protein under 50 carbs. Now I been eating like this from month 3 I stop Losing weight about month 3. My old eating habits were triple Venti white mocha that was my Breakfast and lunch. After work I would make dinner for the family we eat dinner later on that evening I would have a snack which was usually carbs can of Pringles and a Mountain Dew. I had eaten like this for over 10 years. In that 10 Years my weight did not move much just stayed around 260/250 no matter what I did. Unknowns to me I had trashed my metabolism. I was easily living off 600-700 Calories a day years before my sleeved. So I was told after the initial surgery my body was in overdrive healing so I was able to lose 35/38 lbs. After my body was done healing it went back to using its normal calories. So with only eating what I'm eatting now my body thinks I need maintenance so weight dose not move up or down I just continued to break even. So I was told I need the RNY for its metabolic reset . I hope it works

Oh wow. I hope the RNY works out for u. I'm sure it will. I keep reading more and more stories like that about the sleeve but it means more to me to really hear it first hand.

Lol yeah it's a lot to take in and even more to deal with. I have been called full of it I've been told to eat right and work out to stick to the plan not by docs but by other sleevers. You would think your peers other people who have had it done would support you but most of them like to degrade and belittle you if yours is not working as well as the majorities. There are a few that are Kind understanding but most are down right Nasty and judgmental. I'm reading more and more ppl getting there sleeve redone many as slow as me some that stop loosing or loss 1 lb a month. I just lost 1lb after 3 months of nothing. The sleeve is just a Up in the air crapshoot ATM and a fad it works well for some and not at all for others. I would not say down right don't get it to someone I would more Say take a hard look and a evaluation of your eating habits Before you choose a wls. I wish I knew to do that before I spent the time and money I did on the sleeve.

Hello there , my experience with the sleeve has been awful ! I'm 5 months out and haven't been able to tolerate any solid food. Doctors say it's because the sleeve made my Gerd a lot worse.... none of the acid reducer meds work! So , I'm having the revision to fix this and hopefully turn everything around. I've lost a total of 60 lbs in 5 months , which can be said is not that bad.... but for some , they lose this in 2 months. The sleeve isn't for everyone , and by no means an equal to the RNY like so many say it is.

I'm sorry to heat about ur bad experience with sleeve. I'm go glad I get to hear this though. Makes me more confident that I'm choosing the right thing. I can't imagine having to go thru this twice. When is ur RNY scheduled? I hope this does turn around ur acid reflux issues like it should. Is ur insurance covering the sleeve to RNY procedure, if u don't mind me asking. I've just wondered how that works since it seems most insurance don't even want to cover it the first time. LOL U know how they are!

Thanks... I hope it works out too! I'm scheduled for May 7th... can't wait to get this over with. I'm self pay ( both times). Going to Mexico because insurance wouldn't cover either time. Good luck with your surgery and with your weight loss journey.
