Wow, That doesn't sound like a very good track record for the sleeve! And I just can't reconcile myself to the idea that they would be cutting away 85% of my stomach, permanently. I agree with you that it is a lifelong thing and slow is not a bad way to go. Thank you for your encouragement, and good luck to you, too!

Thank you for sharing your experience. That must have taken a lot courage to cancel your surgery the day of your pre-op! If gny were the only option available I simply would not get the surgery because of the malabsorption issues you mentioned. I think you're right, what matters is how much effort you're willing to put into it, no matter which one you choose. Thanks for the great advice and encouragement.

Thank you for sharing your experience --- it is very encouraging! I am actually an emotional eater, but only in that when i start --- and I always wait until i'm hungry --- I don't want to stop so I can end up eating enormous amounts. iI'm not a grazer, and I have about 100 pounds to lose. Being satisfied with small amounts of food sounds like my dream come true!

Thank you for getting back to me! I kind of have to go with this practice because they are the only ones covered by my insurance. I guess what I have to do is research until I'm confident enough to say, well this is what I want and if you disagree then too bad, cause i"m the customer!
