re a sweet tooth being better suited to the bapass, this is not true. That was once thought, but has ince been disproven by studies reported about 2 yrs ago by dr. dixon in australia.

Only about 70% of bypass people ever "dump' and most of those get used to sweets, so can consume them again, even if they should not.

One of the biggest problems with the bypass pouch is that it so easily stretches out within 18-24 mionths, and then people must resort to the same severe dieting and exercise forever to maintain weight - just what none of us could do before. This is the same problem with the sleeve.
the band, however, is always there to help is control our eating. that's why i chose the band, and have been very successful in both losing, and now maintaining for more than 4 yrs so far.
