The 6 month diet program was well worth it. So love this community it has helped me out so much too!!! Thanks everyone for all the advice yall put on here.
  7. That's exactly what my surgeon said and he specialize in both. He said the lap band is over rated he has seen so many cases of his first lap banders having to get it removed. I was really scared cause all I thought about was half of my stomach being removed!!!! Aahhhhhhh
  8. Hi everyone my name is rosa and I switched to the sleeve a couple of weeks ago. I am finally done with my 6 month diet program first woohoo. Everything got turned in to them from my surgeon got a call from the dietician yesterday stating everything looks really good and expect to hear from us later this week or early next. Wooshhhhhh I wasn't even expecting that so glad to hear something positive. I feel really tired weighing 283 and being 25 this is not how I want my life to be anymore. Looking forward to getting to meet new people on the same boat.
