Thank you. This is easier for me to understand. There is so much to learn!
ok, you and I are a bit similar. Thank you. goodness, size 8/10! Regular stores!
Does Gastric Bypass lose more than the Sleeve? How do you stop losing weight when you get to where you want?
I am not even at the point of seeing a surgeon. I just got through with my primary doctor. Not even sure I want to go this route, but those who have walked the path, like you, seem pretty level headed and stead fast with the decision you've made which makes me that much more intrigued!
So you had VSG before RNY? or are you waiting to have RNY? I am hearing the same with the lapband, thinking that one is crossed off my short list.
Very interesting that you were off of your insulin DAYS after surgery!? So DS requires more supplements after? There is so much to learn!
ok, I hadn't even known about having two surgeries, but I am seeing that for some it was necessary. Thank you for adding your experience. I will definitely steer clear of the band as I am seeing a trend that a revision would be in my future. I didn't event know RYN was around for that long! Thank you!
so people still eat the same foods and expect different outcomes, but still loose in the first year? how does that work? And I will have to look more into this honeymoon period you mention.
I hadn't really thought about having to go through surgery again with a revision... oh god.
You seem to have really done well and thank you for providing some valuable information.
Thank you. I do have episodes of Acid reflux so that will have to be a questions I add to my list.
Wow, 17 years ago! That is a lot of years of experience and I appreciate you sharing yours. I like the example you provided of the house and having to live in it. Puts things into a better perspective for me.
Thank you very much! I appreciate you elaborating a bit!
Thank you. did you have any prior health issues or was it just about food intake? Trying to see "similar" ones with myself to try and go from there. I have High blood pressure, sleep apnea, high cholesterol, gallstones, I just feel heavy on my knees, can't really do much because everything hurts and my doctor has threatened me because my blood work showed my sugars as being 195
Does dumping occur with every surgery?
Looking for positive and negative experiences, as to why you chose this procedure over the others?
