I would take this time to read as many stories here as you can. Learn as much as you can about life after surgery. Its not for everyone. When you mention staples and all...can I assume that you are looking at OPEN gastric bypass vs. using the lap method. The procedure is exactly the same as far as the RNY and the results. The only difference is how they open you up to do the procedure. I had to open and did very well with it.
