I decided to get a second opinion. I am so happy I did. Now I do not know which surgery to have. My surgeon told me I can wait up until the day of surgery to decide, but that could be between Nov. 2nd and Nov. 20th. So i don't have that much time to decide. I had made up my mind to have RnY until I met with the first surgeon. He told me VSG would be best for me, but today my new surgeon said RnY..Im soooooo confused. I guess back to research. But I do want to say thank you for pushing me to even get the second opinion. Sometimes I am just so passive...

take ur time and pray on it. this is NOT like deciding on a pair of shoes, because if you decide u don't want it you can't just return it back to the store! tell God your worries and He will ease your fears and mind and guide you on the right path.

I second what Kerbi said.. That is the best advice.
I am so Grateful unto God and yes, I will continue Praising Him in Advance!

Yes take your time before you make a big decision because it is a very important one.  I know one thing you need to think about is your co-morbilities if you have any and which would best help those in the long run.  Good luck to you but now its time to get that research on and only you can decide whats best for you and your body.

What do you want and what can't you tolerate?  You will loose with either so look at the differences. 

Bigger meals vs restriction of a tiny pouch: how is your self control? 
To dum*****t to dump: is this a plus or minus for you?  Malabsorption: yes or no to faster wl but with life time supplements?   
Do you loose weight easily but struggle to keep it off or is the opposit true?
Which suites your lifestyle best?

Look at all the angles.  You'll know what to do when you consider everything else that comes with each procedure.
