gastric bypass or sleeve

[mrscinders]

Does anyone know why people lose more with bypass than sleeve x

The bypass works on two levels, food restriction due to smaller stomach and malabsorption due to shortening the intestinal path your food takes. My understanding of a sleeve is that the pouch is bigger and that's the only tool for you

Thanks for your reply its really hard decideing on which one to get x

It is a huge decision! Do lots of research and make yourself a comparison list. I had a bypass nearly two weeks ago and for me it was always the option I wanted to go with. I liked that it was two folded in it's approach as I wanted to fool proof my journey as much as possible. I'm a picker with food so just a smaller pouch I would be able to work around, my favourite naughty food was also high fat like crisps and sugary things like sweets so the bypass will also create a higher intolerance for these food types, for me a win win x
