No, not at all. I was going for the sleeve first but when the surgeon read that I have dealt with and been medicated for years for Acid reflux, he immediately recommended the bypass because people who get the sleeve often have problems with heartburn so I am thankful he made that decision for me. I am fine with the bypass. From what I have read, sometimes people who get the sleeve ultimately move on for a second surgery which of course is the bypass.

You have a lot to be proud of! Great job and looking good! Can't wait until I get my surgery done and can be where you are at today! Keep up the good work.

And I go along with everyone else - water will just wash the food straight through.

Welcome to the group! I am new as well! did find out yesterday that I am approved for the surgery so looks like I am on my way too!

I still don't know how to get one!

Wooooo Whooooooo!! Good for you and congrats!

Hi everyone, I have been to the seminar, the first doctor appointment, coming Tuesday will be my evaluation appointments and I am new to this site. Never belonged to a forum before. Looking for and hoping to give support with all those who have the same goal in common with me. Losing weight and becoming healthier!

As soon as I figure out how to respond to each of you I will but meanwhile thanks everyone for welcoming me and I look forward to the journey ahead with all of you!!
