One month until surgery!
So I've been happy with the VSG, but I believe that RNY would have been just as healthy and successful. From what I've been reading over the past two years, those with RNY do great as long as they follow a program, take all their vitamins (forever), and get regular labs to make sure that everything is in a good range. Though I felt more comfortable with VSG going in, I might have made a different decision now mostly because I am worried about the possibility of future GERD and feel more comfortable with the malabsorption aspects. At the end of the day whatever you and your surgeon feel is best should be your course (it really isn't important what anyone else thinks).
