mskami77 295 Posted November 3, 2013 I'm starting my pre op on Tues. I used to be a heavy drinker in my long ago past. I found that I'm craving alcohol more than food. I've gone almost 2 years without drinking anything other than 4-6oz of red wine once a week and its been 3 weeks since my last glass. I haven't acted on it but I think I just might miss my Saturday glass of wine more than food. Is this weird? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

band2RNY 12 Posted November 3, 2013 I just did research and I want a for sure slam dunk so this battle can finally be over. Sleeve is not reversible and I believe rny is. Plus I want more malabsorbtion that rny gives. I just did not want to go through another revision surgery as I'm having to do with this band. You will be fine. .. no worries. I was terrified of this and now I'm sorta at peace with it. It is tough and im sure many understand. Just think about how much better you will feel with no complications.
