Yeah I've been perusing the bypass forums, and they're dead. I can't find one crazy lunatic over there. They must all be in hibernation.

I like the new site for 1 reason, I spent almost a year on VST before becoming a traitor and getting RNY lol now I dont have to flip back and forth to keep up on everything lol not that I have made a lot of friends but I do enjoy the personalities on the sleeve forum :)

O btw the band has never ever been a thought for me :)

We have several former sleevers that converted to RnY and stick around on the sleeve forum.

I asked for them to please stay because their stories are important.. So post away girlie :)

We only like them cause they dump and we don't. :P

Then you'll love me cuz I'm the queen of dumping. One of the lucky few. (Seriously, NOBODY. Dumps....I dump off everything carbish.)

If your looking for RNY drama, look up the threads 'negativity' and 'the count down begins for boob job'. Those are the last 2 really stupid moments I remember. Sometimes you just have to step back and think WTF???

Everyone has to decide themselves but they should talk to revision patients. Band 10 years of struggles and still being obese. Sleeve only 2 years but much much better tool. I think many surgeons are backing away from band.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
