This is really a personal decision & you need to do a lot of research. I would make a list of pros and cons for each type of surgery, to include lifestyle changes, expected weight loss percentage and possible complications. Your doctor could also help council you on what type of surgery is best for you as well.

I chose my surgery (VSG) because I ate mass quantities at a time but I didn't want to deal with dumping syndrome, mal-absorption or miss the hormones that are produced in your intestines.

To pick your surgery you need to be brutally hones with yourself about what you expect out of each surgery and whether you want to live that lifestyle forever.

I'll just second the advice to talk to your doctor about this. Your particular issues will affect which is the best option for you. And you will be best able to determine what you are willing to do after the surgery (and for the rest of your life).

Good luck!

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
