Anyone wishing they would have had gastric bypass instead of sleeve?

Getting nervous I may not be able to loose as much wt as I would have liked with the sleeve? Anyone who has been sleeve for a while wish they would have gone bypass?

I love my sleeve. I know several people that had the bypass and had lots of problems including having surgery again due to complications. I had my surgery July 26th and have lost 50 lbs, which is the same amount of weight my bypass friends had at this point after their surgery.

I have no regrets since having the sleeve done. I am 7 months post op and have lost about 150 pounds, and that is without exercising about 3 months.
