I am hoping it remains the gastric bypass veterans group ... I for one am a veteran of the sleeve surgery, but needed the revision to gastric bypass due to the horrible hiatal hernia I got as a result of the sleeve. I had the sleeve done 2/10/11, and the bypass 7/15/14. I am down 115 pounds from 280, leaving me currently at 165. I am pretty happy so far, continuing to lose about 10 pounds a month with an ultimate goal of 140 (it used to be 150). so I am hoping to continue this losing trend so I can lose 1/2 of myself! I am only 5'4", so it isn't too much. I am really happy about the results so far
