So I met with a surgeon yesterday and he said that he would recommend gastric bypass for me vs the sleeve because he doesn't think I will lose enough weight with the sleeve. I currently weigh 354 lbs. I am really set on the sleeve because my husband and I plan to have one more baby in 4-5 years and the malabsorption issues and dumping syndrome worry me with bypass. I just feel uncomfortable with my anatomy being rearranged. At the same time, I do need something that will work for me. If you were more than 300 lbs and have been sleeved please tell me your experience. No matter how far into you are or whether you were successful or not it would really help me. Even those of you that know someone in this situation, much appreciated!! Thanks!
