    African American Sleevers & Hair Loss

    Thanks PEvette. Then I will have to get a weave otherwise my hair will not look right. I am all for the natural thing on others but not for me. I know this is the thing right now but relaxed just works for my busy lifestyle. I was natural several years ago and it was way too much maintenance. I am afraid to get braids less my hair fall out even more. I hope someone replies who has had this problem.

    Getting Re Sleeved

    This is interesting. I wonder what size boogie your docs used. I notice here that I have seen written the sleeve reduces anywhere from 70%-85% of your stomach. Therefore I didn't think you could be resleeved. I'd like to hear more.

    It Happened :(

    I am so sorry that happened to you. I have those same fears. We can do this. Don't worry about ignorant people. They don't know any better.
  12. I love this site. So glad I found it.

    Has Anyone Gotten Pregnant After Sleeve

    Not me but there is a whole forum on here. My doc recommends 2 years. Check out the forum. There are many people posting about their experiences.
  20. It is not common but it is offered. My Doctor, Dr. Elariny is going to add a band to my sleeve. I also did extensive research so that how I know it is uncommon. I trust Dr. E as he is the doctor who did the surgery on the 600 lb woman on the Discovery channel.Here is a link to her website. http://www.conniejac...cial_thanks.php PS. He did not do the sleeve on Connie as she had GB back in 2001. Just evidence of his bariatric experience.
  21. My grandma passed and I just started the two week diet. Not sure I can do it.
