  1. HIPPA restricts Dr. Vuong from explaining why he cannot give this patient a lap band. I am just guessing this is why we have not heard from the Doc. There are so many tests you must take to prove fitness for this surgery.

    Bypass for less than 100 lbs

    I had constant reflux and needed a pill every day for that. As a result of this acid reflux , I got a hiatal hernia. My doctor said I should have the sleeve because the bypass tends to create acid reflux forever. I had the sleeve, and I have not had reflux at all. I am so glad I got the sleeve. I do not have 100 pounds to lose either. I need to lose 80 pounds. The bypass surgery is for people who need to lose 100 pounds or more. Push for the sleeve, and if he resists you, go to a different doctor. This should be YOUR choice. He repaired my hernia too. Thank God!
  3. I went to my pre-op class yesterday and asked about the vitamin patches. The nutritionist said they are garbage, that there is no proof that our skin can absorb the vitamins. I just wanted you all to save your money

    Let's Get it Started, July 2017 Sleevers!

    I have a therapist too. I told him I want to go through this with someone. I have depression and they were afraid to approve me in the first place because I am an emotional eater. I need to make sure I stay in therapy through this ordeal. Maybe we can all get a group discount on tummy tucks afterward hahahaha!!! I am scared of the way I am going to look after losing the weight. I hope not too bad because I don't think i can ever afford plastic surgery unless I go to mexico. This group will be good for us cuz we can share right from pre-op to post-op and beyond! Nice to meet all of you!!
