No i dont have it , but my mum does and i no she is considering surgery cus im having it and i think the reason she is doubting is cus she is 56 and has A Fib so i was just wondering if anyone has any advise really :-) Thanks Lucy x

Hello everyone, just wondered if any of you have had the sleeve and also have AF? abnd what your experiance is/was? Thanks x

Sorry if i sound silly with this, but if we/you could stick with weight watchers why have the sleeve? x

Great story im so pleased everything went well for you and i wish you every success on your journey. Were you NHS funded? did you gain weight from referal to surgery? thats my biggest fear as im struggling to stick with the dietitions plan and im worried if gain weight i wont be allowed surgery Once agian well done :thumbs_up: Lucy x

Hi Deb No not yet, im going to see dietition tomorrow so im hoping i get a rough estimate of how long I guess i have got to have some test etc first??? Hows things going with you? Take care Lucy x

When i read your post i actually wanted to cry because i feel just like you...scared of everything, scared to move forward and scared oto stay as i am, but i really think by what you have said your ready for this, you just need the support and confidance to get though it. i weigh 377 and am female so very near your weight and i want to live and have a healthy future and having this op will give us our life back...so i say embrase it your/our feeling mean we no what were doing and have not made this decion on a whim!!!!!!!!!! I really do wish you all the luck in the world and im excited you hear your journey...my surgery wont be till early next year. stay positve

Hi everyone Now im not a big drinker at all infact i have only had one drink this year ( red wine) at my sisters wedding but im wondering after the sleeve whats the rules regarding alcohol? i woud just like to know if, now and again when i go out i can have alcohol or is having the sleeve taking that ability away?

what a fantastic post...thank you so much :-) stories like this inspire me and make me beleive this is the way for me

Yep i realise that its a tool, if only we could wave a magic wand :-) i do eat healthy now but to much of it, which is why im over weight. i do eat wrong things to but thats because i get hungry. i have no doubt that i can choose healthy, eat my vits and drink Water i just need to not be hungry as often. has the sleeve ever failed?

Hello everyone I have read on this site and many that lots and lots of people can loose weight but keeping it off is the problem....well i think this may not work for me if its the case of helping us maintain once we have lost the weight. I have been on and off diets for over 16 years and weigh 10 stone more than i did when i started..i cant stick to a diet long enough, yes i can do a week, 2 at most and i give up as i am hungry or crave something thats not allowed on a diet plan im following. does this mean the sleeve wont work for me...i have no will power what so ever and im worried now
