Hi all, I'm new to this forum and wanted to garner some opinions on having a gastric bypass in Poland or other eastern european countries. I'm 26 years old and have been a yo-yo dieter since I was a teenager, I'm currently 120kg (12 months ago, I was 85kg). I'm sick of the constant cycling and feel the bypass will be one of the tools I can use to maintain a steady weight. From everything I have read about the procedure, I've found myself favoring the bypass over the sleeve. So if you have experience of having a sleeve/ bypass op in Europe please get in touch, I'd be keen to have your input. Jordan.

Hi Elsie, thanks for your reply. Belgium is a country I've been looking at actually so it's nice to hear a review about it! It seems to be quite competitively priced in comparison to the UK or Switzerland. Can I ask- what were the deciding factors in choosing the MGB instead of the full RNY?

Hi, That's great to hear. How did the surgery go? Have you experienced many bumps in the road? I'm in Switzerland- pretty much the most expensive country in the world for just about anything so having surgery here is not an option for me unfortunately. I'm just a bit worried about having an op in one country and recovering in another.
