Hello fellow MGB ladies and gents!

I am scheduled for my conversion on Wednesday 7th. I don’t live in the US so no point in me listing hospital and names.

I am a little nervous but very excited. Surgeon confident MGB is right for me.

Any last minute tips?

Thanks in advance

Starting weight 125kg

Starting weight with sleeve was 165, couldn’t get any lower... that why I have made the decision

Where do you live Angel2018? Always looking for barifrends in New places and when did you decide to have your MGB?

I live in the Middle East
Been thinking about it for a while, decided to take the plunge.

Ordered 3 months worth of patches as the thought of taking all those pills doesn’t really appeal to me.
Anyone else having a conversion this week?

Will be thinking of you on your surgery day. May you be blessed with a smooth surgical journey and increased good health.I'm in the Midwestern USA, in a city almost exact-center of the state of Ohio. If you ever want a friend look for me and all my postings.

I knew you could and would do fine. Take some time to take care of yourself, heal smoothly and lose that weight. Keep on updating us, you do matter to each of your Bari pals.

Hi everyone, quick update. Have been doing so well, zero pain, zero painmeds, easily managing all my water, no complications at all. I’m sleeping well, doctor moved me on to soft foods as I am tolerating everything so well.

By the way I am the OP, not sure if case uk as guest

Awesome news for you. Glad all is going well. Continue to keep us updated! 10lbs down & water intake is good, fantastic.

Hello Angel2018 how is it going since the MGB? I am due to have my sleeve revised to MGB in 2 days and I'm excited!
