You should be successful with either surgery. Do you mind taking vitamins for the rest of your life? That's a requirement of RnY. 

Is alcohol an important part of your life now? 

Both surgeries are permanent. I would really research what the long term looks like and what fits best for your needs.

Good luck with your research!

Have you spoken to your surgeon yet? That's always the best way to see! I think both surgeries are awesome and you can be super successful at either!

 

For me personally, I went with VSG because I am self pay and it is more affordable than RNY. Also, like you, I don't have any other health issues, so I felt sleeve was best for me, personally. Do lots and lots of research!

 

Good luck!

I've done quite a bit of research and feel like I understand both surgeries fairly well. I just can't decide which pro/con list I like better. I wish I could mash up both surgeries, haha. Ah well. Thanks for the advice
