Yes I would and I would have RNY again as well.  I have had no complications, except for a couple of dumping episodes.  I had a great surgeon and I followed all the rules, I am now down 102 lbs.  I can do things that I haven't been able to do in years.  The surgery also forced me to quit smoking and I am so happy about that.  I now make wise food choices and I actually do not crave junk.

In a heartbeat, only I would have done it 10 years sooner, when my Dr first talked to me about it!!

Yes...but not RNY... today I do not like it at all... and I have more days like that... More  - than less.
If I could I would have VSG... or DS

In a heartbeat!  I would not have done any other surgery, but I love the Sleeve!  I reached goal at 6.5 months and have been fighting to keep pounds ON since then.  No hunger, no cravings makes for amazing freedom.  I have to hold myself back from telling every MO person I see about it.

Oh yes. And twice on Sundays, if necessary. (*grin*)

In a heartbeat. Having this surgery probably gave me many more
years of "heartbeats" than I could ever have expected.
