  1. LapBand vs. Gastric Sleeve

    KarynP replied to tprivett's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
    I had the band for 3 yrs and lost all my weight (70 lbs)......after scar tissue billed up due to reflux, throwing up, and problems..... I lost my band. After almost a year I have gained all my weight plus some. I have no choice but to get the sleeve Dec 17. I look at the pros and cons and for both...each person does need to decide what is a best fit for them. For me, having the problems and constent refill/unfill to fix problems, I pray that the sleeve will help me. For me, I have no will power and I need something to help give me a boost and assist me with will power. Neither are an easy fix, you have to make the lifestyle pain.
