Is it true that after you have the sleeve, you don't even crave food anymore? I swear during my consult that my dr said that the sleeve process removes the portion of the stomach that tells your brain you're hungry, so you have to force yourself to eat???

Thanks for all the quick replies! When my wife threw up, it was major pain. For those of you that have thrown up, how bad is it? What about coughing? Any pain there?

I'm getting the sleeve in a few weeks, but am worried about puking. My wife had the lap band and she would puke all the time. It seems it's the same concept, since your upper stomach is now the small area food has to travel through, but better in the long run. I just don't want to be puking all the time. Any advice from people on this and anything else you want to give me for info/advice? I know I need this, but am scared a bit as well. I'm 6'7", so I hide my weight because of my tall frame, but i am hoping to lose 100 lbs of my 320lbs.
