Tuesday emmc Support group
Hi, I was there on the outside circle listening. It was my first support group, I also had orientation the same day. There is so much information, I have been battling with my weight since I was young and have been teetering with this decision for surgery for 2 years. Now its just deciding between the gastric sleeve and the bypass.
I was at the support group as well and had gastric bypass on 6/27/11. I would just recommend that you read over as much information on both that you can find and talk to people who have had both. I think that really made things clearer for me and then when I met with my surgeon we talked about all the options again even though at that point I pretty much knew what I wanted to do. Best of luck to you in finding the answers you need and please feel free to ask any questions you have...we are all here to help one another!
