Hi everyone! My name is michelle. I started my journey in September. I have been so torn between the rny and sleeve. I looked into rny first then saw the sleeve and ever since then did not know which to pick. I love the research behind rny but I love the sleeves not so scary complications. My aunt had rny maybe 5-6 years ago and I know she had a lot of complications which makes me nervous and where I'm so young I'm so afraid I will deal with a lot of complications. I guess I just read way too many things. Anyways my surgeon is amazing at rny he has sooo many successful patients with it with minimal complications. I guess I just need some guidance in choosing. Help!

Welcome! I'm a revision band to bypass. I tried the band first because I was afraid of the bypass even though my mom had the bypass 21 years ago. I'm now loving my bypass and wish I would have chosen it the first go around. My Doctor recommended the sleeve (which has provided individuals with great results) but I've seen where people do the sleeve to bypass revision so I opted for the bypass because I didn't want to risk needing another revision. Both procedures have their risk but you must think positive. Good luck with your decision! Make are you choose the one you want and not the one others tell you to get. Keep us posted.

The reason why I chose the RNY is because you lose the most the most weight with RNY. If I was going to have ANY type of surgery I wanted to get the best bang for my buck. I had no complications what so ever and was back to work in 1 week :)

      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.
