I adore this quote. Thank you for sharing it with me.
I follow a ketogenic diet post-op. I also have a diagnosis of binge eating disorder. Feel free to ask me about either!

Another surgery is a bummer, but your health is totally worth it. Given DS is the strongest of the procedures, why are they saying Rny?

They are leery of doing the DS or SADI because it would not resolve the GERD since it is the sleeve gastrectomy that causes it, and the VSG would remain. The sleeve makes the stomach high pressure which causes the GERD.
The RNY immediately resolves the GERD, though. The bariatric surgeon told me last week that it's actually used as non weight loss surgery to treat severe GERD, which I hadn't known. The problem is reflux can cause cancer long term. It was always assumed I would revise to the DS at a later date since I could not initially get it, but sadly GERD changes everything.
