I was sleeved a few months ago and so far I think it's pretty good. I think the biggest decision is finding a doctor/team that you can trust. I didn't choose the first surgeon I went to. For me, I thought the sleeve was a little safer and closer to my normal routine than the bypass as there is nothing new added to the body. I don't believe there is any malabsorption with the sleeve, nor the dumping syndrome. There is plenty of info on here as well as across the internet about the pros and cons of both surgeries. Hope you find what you're looking for.

I've been drinking a calorie and sugar free drink for 4 years now. It's a grape flavored powder mix usually sold near tge crystal lite section but it's not tea. Cutting out sodas and other sugar drinks helped me to lose a good amount of weight in the past.

I'm also just out of a 4 year narcissistic relationship girl. I know that pain too

So I have my consultation next month with my surgeon as well as my info session on WLS so I will be asking this question then as well.

I'm in a Gastric bypass surgery group on FB so I can get more insight on which surgery everyone is getting. most of them had mentioned they get the bypass instead of the sleeve because most people end up getting the sleeve revised into a bypass due to complications, weight gain and or severe heartburn. I was wondering how common it is to need a revision somewhere down the line and if I would be better off with the Bypass?

I love the zero sugar gatorades and diet snapple. I buy the snapple in the glass bottle because i'm fancy.
