Research everything.

That question has been ask here before and everyone has Their opinion. In the end you and your doctor are the only one who can decide.

My opinion you won't be happy with the sleeve go with the Bypass.

What ever you decide will be the best decision you will ever make for your health and love ones.

Good luck

I didn't even consider the sleeve.

One of my friends who had the sleeve told me just today she wished she had done the bypass. I am having my bypass done Nov 26th! So excited and confident in the decision. Decide which makes you feel confident in your decision and then stick with it :) Best of luck!

One of my friends is getting the sleeve too.... The weight loss progression to me didn't look as good as the bypass. My surgery is scheduled for 12/3. I'm on a liquid diet now.

Now she lost 90 lbs with the sleeve, but she works out like a maniac :) She thinks that both are an effective tool but she is still 10 lbs from her goal. I start my 5 day liquid diet and bowel prep on Wed! I am 100% sure the bypass is the best option for me I want to lose 100-130lbs.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
