Hey forum! I am new to WLS process and when i first started researching i was adamant on having the lapband put in and nothing else was an option. The more research i did and after the seminar i realized rhat i eould rather go with a sleeve. I am 6'5'' amd 405. Big Boy! From Queens, NY and thinking about having the surgery at NYU. My insurance is CIGNA and i only have to do 3 months of supervised diet which is good comparing to other ins. Companies. I have switched from LapBand Talk to this forum and have been reading a lot of posts ans it seems to me that sleevers have it easier than bandsters. I am really turned off by waiting to find the right fill and finding the "green zone" with the band i really want results fast. Also the follow up with the band seem bothersome so i am now 75% leaning towards a sleeve. I would appreciate some words of encourangement and some suggestions on why this and not that. What was your deciding factor? Anyone else had theirs dine at NYU? Thank you in advance.
