Hi Carol,

I am 8 months out, my common channel is approximately 75 cm and as

of this morning I have lost 110 pounds. From 299 to 189. I have 39

pounds to go. My blood work came out perfect. My cholesterol was down

to 119! Everything else was normal...and my triglycerides were

amazingly low!!!

length of the common channel

| +Yesterday (Wednesday May 16th) I had all my pre-surgery tests done.

| When I am asked my doctor (Dr. Buckwald in MN) how long my common

| channel would be, he said 75cm. I asked if we could go with 50cm and he

| said no 50 is too dangerous. I have been researching the surgery for

| quite some time going over and over it but still dont understand the

| actual mechaniics of the surgery. I am not a stupid person but for some

| reason this just click in my head. So my question is what other people

| have for their commom channel length and how it is working them.

Hi, I am 8 weeks post-op and have lost 56 lbs. from 272 to 216. My

common channel is 80 cm. I agree that 50cm would be too short. You

don't want to have long term problems with malabsorbtion. I think

between 75 and 100 is more practical and you will have good weight

loss with that amount.
