Even with my 2nd go at it, I'm still nervous! If I wasn't I'd be concerned.

Why has it been so long if you don't mind me asking?

I started in winter 2014 with 1 surgeon but in summer 2015, I didn't think we were on the same page any longer. So I went to another surgeon and in Nov 2015 attempted VSG, but it had to be aborted after 3 incisions were put in me. They had issues keeping me inflated enough to operate safely. So I allowed myself to heal and continue to lose weight since November, and am now making my 2nd go at VSG surgery.

Why not the Gastric Bypass? If you had the sleeve once.

My last sleeve operation was aborted after they put 3 incisions in me. They had to abort the surgery, so I never got the sleeve done.
