After talking with my hubby and my son ( hes seven and very insightful) I am going with the VSG for my surgery.

It came down to a few small details my son wants me to be able to do with me. That I cant with the RNY. I have been doing a test run for 3 months and I have done really well on no or extremly less sugar and fats so I dont think I will need the malobsortion for weight loss.

We thnk its going to be the best for our family and myself.

So a few more months of options and BAM a new surgery to go with my other two. YAY!!! :(

Anyways... I will give Chris my weight tomorrow from class so she knows how much to add to her list.


God bless our troops

Hi Katrina, whatever weight loss procedure you choose will be the right one because you chose it!

We could learn a lot from crayons: 
some are sharp, some are pretty, 
some are dull, some have weird names, 
& all are different colors....but they

ALL exist very nicely in the same box.

I had RNY and my cousin had VSG...she has done great with her surgery.  Your choice is what is best for you.  I wish you the best of luck, and keep us posted.  Good to have you around these parts.

Have a great day, Diane

hey...
I have been lurking more and more but I really have been trying to reply to posts and to start new threads. I also have odd working hours so sometimes I don't get on here before work and when I do get on it's like 2am. But I am still going to my classes too... can you believe it we are almost done!! It doesn't even seem like it but December is just around the corner. I am glad that you made the decision on having VSG. I am gonna go with the RNY. How is your weight loss going so far??? Have you gone to the Pacific Bariatric Seminar yet?? I go on October 20th in Riverside so we will see what they have to say. Well gonna start getting ready for work. I promise not to hide out too much
