I'm also getting the sleeve. Where's everybody from? I'm from Toronto (Canada) but I live in New Taipei City (Taiwan). Navigating the health system here has been an interesting experience!

I'm from Bronx, NY

The RNY seemed too much for me... I don’t know I just feel more comfortable with the sleeve...

Same! It terrifies me. I know it's the golden standard, but figured that since I don't have the co-morbidities that the RnY specifically addresses, the sleeve was enough for me.

I think we will do just fine! I know it’s going to have its ups and downs, but if we do what we are told and have a strong will, it will be a recipe for success

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
