I am a band-to-sleeve sleever. I had the lap band 3 years ago but only lost about 25 pounds. I'm hoping the sleeve will get me to my goal. I'm starting at 244 and my goal is 150 but I'd be happy at 180. I had my band out/sleeve in on May 29, 2012 so its been a few days and my recovery is going well. My biggest fear is that I won't lose any weight since the band didn't work for me. I'm looking forward to sharing my journey with you and following your blogs!

I am a Band to Sleever as well. I am 1 week 2 day post op. I am feeling great! Being on a liquid diet will for sure kick off your weight loss Journey! There is hope after the sleeve. Don't get down! Just stay positive everyday! Remind yourself to be FABULOUS not FAT! :)

I am having the band to sleeve in Houston, My surgeon is Dr. Sherman Yu. My surgery date is July 10. Good to see so many people are having good results from this surgery. I hope I will too.
