Hi how is your weight loss with the sleeve I am scheduled to have it done on Tuesday but now I'm thinking about the gastric bypass because most people are saying it has better results please let me know

Thank you!

I am 14 days post op last time I checked I was down 12 pounds. For the first week I was having spasms after every drink so I would take the medication the doctor gave me and that helps. That stuck feeling for me tends to occur now when I take to big of a drink. It takes a minute for it to trickle down and the pressure to go away.

Cdominguez, I thought about the bypass also but then I looked at the possible side effects and the possibility of malnutrition from now absorbing as much. I kinda weight the pros and cons of all surgery and choose to go with the sleeve. As of right now I have no complaints.

1 week post-op and I feel awesome, I'm about 98% back to normal. Down 14 pounds since surgery and 39 since starting my journey. :)

If you look at the more recent research, the sleeve and the bypass have almost the same results 2 years out. It is a personal choice so make sure you do all your research and decide that is good for you. Everyone is different.

Hello! Thanks for asking! Well I'm 8 days post op. The first bit was miserable! But I'm feeling better. Walking, trying so hard to get my 64 oz in and all my Protein - I'm close!! I have less pain when I swallow. But when I walk I have a pain way down low in my left lower quadrant of my "second" belly lol. Maybe I need a support I dunno. I am way better though. Go back to work on Monday. Lost 27 lbs from the preop week of liquids and this first week post op. Yay! 200 left lol

Hello all I'm 23 days out ( sleeved on July 14 th) I feel so much better than the first couple of weeks post op. 2 issues tho. Ive been on my period for 2 weeks and my BMs are only once a week. I'm still on a full liquid diet until Aug 9th so I hoping things will get back to being regular for me. Other than that no pain.

      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.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!
