VBG to RNY Dec 31st 2012

I am so excited to be so close to my surgery date. I had a VBG in 2001 and lost around 110 lbs. I have gained about half that back after two kids. My biggest problem is the severe reflux and the ease of eating junk food over protein. I have been on the liquid diet for 10 days and have done great and am fully ready for my revision. I wondered if there is anyone else out there that had an open VBG and has successfully had a Laproscopic RNY and can share their experience :) Before starting the medically supervised program and now the liquid diet I was at 256. Lost 8 lbs on the supervised plan and not sure on this liquid diet yet. I am ready to start my second chance at sucess!!

Good luck Jennifer!  Keep us posted on how you are doing!

Thank you! I sure will!

Good luck!!! I had the VBG in 2006. I hated it. Food got stuck so often i was miserable!! I had a revision to the DS in 2009. I wish you the best of luck and success with your new surgery!!!!

Thank you very much!!!
