I had my band placed 2011 and it was removed Jan 2015 I have now gained all my weight that I lost and went to speak to a surg about sleeve but he mentioned I would not lose that much cause all the scaring but mentioned I will lose a lot more with by pass..

Has anyone gone through this and if so any suggestions for me

Thanks!!!!

Here is my opinion; I have had all three, lapband to sleeve to gastric bypass. I can tell you that the GB is much different/better than the sleeve. I wish I had known before I had the sleeve and just gone with GB. Better restriction, better lack of appetite, no sugar/carb cravings I am 13 weeks out and actually right now just the thought of eating something fatty/sugary, makes me feel nauseous. Last night at work they ordered Vietnamese/Chinese food and the smell was gross to me. I hope that I can have these feelings forever!

I am sure that sleevers will tell you that their surgery is the best and so probably with the GB'ers. Don't worry about taking vitiamins I have not found this to be a problem at all. I have just gotten into a routine with it.

Yes!!!

Thank You for Sharing Threetimesacharm!!

Any tips for me, I am seeing the surg on the 30th and will be telling him I will go by his reccomendation and have by pass....

Were you out of work long and was the pain worse?

Thank You So Much for sharing your info
