VSG conversion to DS or SADI/Loop



Recommended Posts

Hi there. I had the gastric sleeve performed in December of 2014 and have since then gained nearly all of my weight back. I'd really love to hear from someone who has had a similar experience who then went on to have a conversion to the DS or SADI/Loop. Has anyone had much success? Failure? I would really love to hear from anyone, as it's so hard to find any information on this! Thank you very much in advance for your time and kindness.

I had my sleeve Dec. 2012. Lost 120ish LBS, gained about 60 LBS of that back. I am now almost 2 mons out from conversion/revision to SIPS/SADI/LOOP. So far I'm doing good. I'm not sure how much I actually weigh at the moment or how much I lost. This time I'm only getting on the scale at any of my drs/nut appointments, I can say I went from a 4x/5x to a 2x.

Best of luck to you. On making a decision I am going with the mini gastric bypass. After some major research that's what I have decided to do I also have had weight gain.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
