Awesome results Diann. I am still in the process of deciding which procedure to have. I started out thinking I was going for gastric, then I read the comparisons between LB and GBS, and I then starting leaning towards LB, even though the results take longer to achieve, I am so confused as to which way to go. Can I ask how long it took you to lose your weight?

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
