Mini bypass

[HopeSpringsEternal 2]

What are the major differences between regular vs mini bypass? What is dumping? Do your bodily functions change forever? Has anyone had the Omega bypass reversed? Any info you have would be helpful. My sleeve has stopped working.

I have never heard of a mini bypass. What do you mean by your sleeve stopped working? When did you get it? Are you following a diet and exercise regimen? Are you drinking your Water?

Me. I had mine in Belgium with Dr Chris DeBruyne. I'm delighted with the results. I don't have any reflux problems although b/c mine was a revision from a lapband, my pouch is slightly larger than most due to scar tissue. But I'm losing more than a kilo a week, and my diabetes is in full remission.

How many weeks ago did you have surgery and how many kgs lost

I had my MGB revision on Oct 16, so nearly 4 months ago. I've lost 20.2 kgs after surgery (not incl pre-op loss). That's about five kilos a month which I'm delighted with. I'm not a quick loser but slow and steady wins the race, so to speak.
