RNY on 9/14 with Dr Maguire in Dayton at Miami Valley Hospital.   Five weeks from tomorrow - not that I'm counting!!

Want it to be tomorrow but don't want to wish away what's left of summer either.  Good luck all!

Topic: RE: my surgery sept 13th but cant decide wether sleeve or bypass is best?
My surgeon said pretty much the same thing.  He said the younger guys in his practice do a lot of the sleeve surgeries because it's the latest greatest thing and they consider it to be cutting edge.  My surgeon just isn't comfortable with the lack of long term data and believes the RNY has a greater long term success rate.

My friend who is mentoring me through the process had RNY 8 years ago last month and has kept off 110 of the 130 lbs she lost.   Her bloodwork comes back normal every month, she takes her vitamins daily and has had no problems.

I'm having the RNY on 9/14.  Want it to come faster but I hate to wish away the summer.

Good luck!

 Mmmmm KitKats....such a simple pleasure...LOL  I too believe the RNY is the right surgery for me.  I have my apprehensions but as my surgery date gets closer (Sept. 28th) the more comfortable I am with my whole decision.  I'm looking forward to regaining my life, one pound at a time.   All the best with your surgery.

My 25th anniversay was in July and we talked about doing another cruise to celebrate but i decided to hold off until next year so that my weight would be down and I would enjoy it more.

Hi Helen and thanks for the info, I did not know this !! ... I wanted to do the RNY from the begining cause I believe in doing things right the first time, and the other methods dont really have as high sucess rate as the RNY, plus I was afraid of cheating with the kitkats that I love so much. :) I'm scheduled for my bypass on December, ah I cant wait :)
