Hi Alina, I didn't get to goal with the sleeve alone so I got the duodenal switch to give me malabsorption so I can lose more weight.  My stomach wasn't touched the 2nd time.  With the DS you malabsorb 50% of protein and 80% of fat so those 2 are pretty free foods for a DSer.

You'd have to have a fair bit of weight left to lose to get the DS.

 Hi Alina,

I have the Serenity Prayer in my signature line here on OH.    I LOVE it too.   Good luck to you on your journey.    You really shouldn't feel hunger with the Sleeve since they are suppose to remove that part of your stomach.     I have a son who was a drug addict for 14 yrs. and he is 1 year clean from his addiction.    Congrats on your 4+ yrs. in recovery.    Have a blessed weekend !!!

Hugs and blessings ~~~ Vivian

vivian that is wonderful about your son. since i am there along with him. i can tell you this. let him express his
truths even if its embarassing to hear. and remember its like one hour at a time to stay clean. i now hate who i was and any and all drugs. i hope every day is precious for him. congratulations to have your baby
back. vivian i am hungary. lol or cry. they say its a tool not a miracle. i was 304 now im 248. so im happy just
not proud of myself cause im still grazing. what about you?
