On the downward trek of the preop  diet.  Surgery on Monday September 25.  Less nervous about the surgery than I was in the beginning.  I had VSG 6 years ago and have severe GERDS.  Since having the sleeve I am not a candidate for the procedures to control the reflux.  I was told converting the sleeve to bypass will cure the reflux.  I also have bile  backing up into my stomach from the duodenum and irritating my stomach causing gastritis so the bypass will prevent this from happening.  I lost 80 lbs with the sleeve.  I did not reach my goal ( I am sure my own fault) so I am hoping the extra benefit will be more weight loss.  I am down 6 lbs in 10 days so I think that is a good indication I will continue to lose more weight.  Has anyone else having conversion surgery?  I would like to hear from you,
