to Bypass vs Sleeve

Im not sure which one is best for me I need some opinions of ppl that are post op.. Please and thanks.

I did tons of research and found out that sleeve patients lose less, but also regain less over the long run, while rny patients lose more much more rapidly, but also tend to regain more....the weight loss for rny is still greater. The deciding factor for me was the lack of long-term data on the sleeve...only about 8 years. I wasn't comfortable with that. I also liked the added bonus of the malabsorption with rny. While this means we need to be vigilant about nutrient intake, it also means we simply absorb fewer calories. This makes me be mindful of every bite I put in my mouth. Dumping can also be an "attractive" deterrent for some, although since many don't dump, it can't be relied upon. Whatever you decide, best of luck!

Just be warned, many many people do not dump, you can't really rely on that as an effective weight loss tool because there's a very good chance you won't be a dumper.

It will Still require willpower to say no to sweets.
