      this sucks

      I'm in the same boat. Was banded July 2010 and I'm in the process of revising to sleeve. I have motility issues-food is sitting in my esophagus instead of going through. So frustrated with the band-I wish I had known at the start that I was going to have issues with balancing fill levels and searching for the sweet spot. I've done everything now and am waiting for it all to be submitted to insurance.

  4. So I'm 5 days into my 2 week liquid diet and I'm actually doing great!  I haven't wanted to stab anyone and my hunger and headaches are minimal.  Hoping this is a good sign that my recovery will go smooth as well...
