I had sleeve surgery 14 months ago and have lost 100 lbs. I'm in the spot where I am interested in converting to another surgery. Has anyone done this? I'm not seeking for medical advice. Just curious to know if anyone has had sleeve surgery and then converted over to bypass or the DS. If so, have you had success? Would you suggest going that route or staying away? Just curious as to everyone's thoughts.

How much more weight do you have to lose? The reason why I ask is that many people have an incorrect understanding of the surgeries. It's not so much what surgery you pick but rather how motivated you are in losing the weight. So even if you did convert to another surgery you are not guaranteed results if you have not made any significant changes to your diet. I personally only view my sleeve as a tool that helps me from regaining, not actively losing weight. Speak to your doctor if you have concerns.
