    Would you mind sharing your experience with VSG? What has been some of the problems or complications that have occurred to make you decide to have gastric bypass? Did you experience less restriction over time?

    Hi! Sure I'll share my experience with u. I got sleeved 2/16/2013 in mexico my dr is wonderful!!! Never had any problem thank god!! At 6 months I stop losing weight. I lost a total of 60-65pds. But gradually gained 15 back. I'm allergic to fruits vegetables and any kind of nuts!! So that didn't help any but if the veggies are cooked I'll be ok. But regardless I would eat healthy and exercise 5 days out of the week I just couldn't lose anymore!! Plus I eat healthy but I notice I can eat more now. It's gotten very frustrating. I'm glad I've lost 50 so far but I still need 70-80 more to go. I only wish I would've just done the GB instead.

    But don't let my story discourage u. There's many that do great with the sleeve. :).
