    LAN2K - thanks for your reply. Congrats on your 70 pounds of weight loss - you are almost to goal. I have an appointment with my surgeon 6 days b/4 my surgery (surgery is the 31st) - hopefully she can put my mind to rest on this "sleeve" vs. bypass. Could I ask you why you decided upon the sleeve over the bypass?

    Lan2K - thanks for your information. I'm curious - did you have reflux prior to your surgery - and since surgery has it improved or were you never bothered with reflux? How has the weight loss been in the 6 months post op?

    LyndaRN I have about 75 pounds to lose. I am really leaning towards the sleeve but I've concerns about reflux (which I've been on meds for about 20 years for and would really like to not be bothered by reflux and would like to get off the medication - but with the sleeve I have concerns about the reflux) - it is probably too soon to ask you this - as you've just finished with surgery a few days ago but have you experienced any reflux from the sleeve as of yet?

    LyndaRN - I'm getting ready for surgery end of the month - can you tell me why you decided on the sleeve vs. bypass? Thanks - and glad you are doing so fantastic - you are an inspiration to those of us getting ready to have the surgery

    LyndaRN - amazing that the surgery took so little time and that you came home the day of the surgery - why did you come home so quickly? I'm new to this site and am scheduled for surgery March 31st - I can't decide if I should have the sleeve or the bypass. I'm a self pay so I want as little complications as possible but I've had gastric reflux for about 20 years and I'm concerned with the sleeve that I might still have the reflux - so I'm still trying to figure out what to do. So glad you are doing so well... an
