If you are on any of the WLS oriented forums out there, one topic you’ll come across fairly frequently is when someone posts that they are looking in to surgery, but they don’t know if they should get RNY or the Band. Sometimes VSG and DS come up, but I don’t know much about those… so I’m going to give you my take on how the two compare.

Remember, I’m no medical doctor or anything, this is just what I’ve learned from reading about other peoples experiences and what I learned in my own pre-op research. This decision is a very personal one, but maybe I can give you some good stuff to think about while making it.
