LaDivaDev 129 Posted February 28, 2016 Hello RNYers! After initial consultation with my surgeon, he highly recommended that I pursue gastric bypass rather than sleeve given my high starting BMI. I had gone into the meeting set on the sleeve; needless to say, I am now looking at RNY as I trust his medical opinion and evaluation of my health. I am curious about those of you who have had RNY, specifically your starting weight/BMI and your progress to date. So...I invite those of you who feel comfortable to share your before and after RNY pics and progress. Thanks to you all! Dev Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
James Marusek 5,244 Posted February 29, 2016 I am 33 months post op RNY. I would recommend that you take a good before photographs so that you can compare it to the after photograph. Often times we fail to really see ourselves. And after surgery, we sometimes question our weight loss because we have nothing to compare it to. This is my 6 month before and after photo. I tried to duplicate the same pose. http://www.breadandbutterscience.com/Operation.jpg Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
honeypeas 8 Posted March 2, 2016 This is me 4 weeks before surgery and 5 months after. It's not all rainbows and butterflies, but I'd do it again 100 times to feel as good as I do. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
