Starting the process, looking for information

[mommamiller 0]

I go for my consultation the end of July. Thinking I want to do the sleeve. Does anyone have this and not like it? Or wish they had gotten it. I am trying to eat a more "limited" diet to see if I can follow through with out soda and sugar. How did everyone adjust to the different diet? I am 5'3 and weigh 230lbs. Looking to lose 100lbs. Any tips for me?

Welcome mommamiller, I hope you receive the information you need. There is forum on here started by s9meone who says she is sorry although most people aren't, quite a few,regard it as a REBIRTHDAY in their lives and feel quite lucky,to have found it.

I'm getting the sleeve!I had my first nutrition/exercise class yesterday and someone asked how often their patients regret having WLS and they told us that this virtually never happens. They also said that a majority of their patients who have revisions do so out of medical necessity (such as having severe acid reflux), but not due to lack of weight loss.

I had a bypass . Mainly for maximum weight loss and to get rid of any chance of reflux . I also notice(d) that many sleevers tend to have revision to bypass for medical reasons . I didn’t want to chance having two surgeries .

I’ve had zero issues, pain or vomiting etc or anything people tend to think of when they think rny

Good luck with your decision
