Hi, I had a sleeve two years ago and have just had a conversion to mini gastric bypass as my sleeve became baggy effectively. I never ate excessively but found I could easily eat a main meal and dessert in the end. I lost 10 stone with it but I could eat quite normally with mine after the first year and my weight loss stalled. I actually put a few stone back on, hence the surgeons re operating as I still have a lot to lose. I also got a hiatus hernia but it doesn't give me any problems. But that is my story and I would say that most people are very successful with it long term. I'd still recommend it highly as a surgery option X
