  1. I'm 4 weeks out too and I was wondering the same thing. I'm a band to sleeve revision. It's been about 20 lbs in the 4 weeks, nothing in the last 2. I'm depressed and I miss food. My energy is semi back but I'm miserable. Scheduled for lapband to sleeve-8/9. CW-279. Sent from my iPhone using VST

  5. I'm 6 days post op. I went back to work today ands drove today. I can't wait to be on full liquids. The night before surgery I weighed 277lb. The day I got home , 2 nights later I weighed 283. Today I weigh 262lbs. I hope the weight keep coming off, I just want to add some thicker stuff to my meals. I feel really good just exhausted. Scheduled for lapband to sleeve-8/9. CW-279.

  6. I think it depends on your surgeon. I only had to do do the day before on clear liquids. My BMI is 49. So I don't think BMI has anything to do with it. He said all of his sleeve patients and lapband patients get the day before of clear liquids. My post op plan is 2 weeks for clear liquids, 2 weeks of full liquids then progress to soft and reg foods. Each surgeon has something that works for them. Good luck Scheduled for lapband to sleeve-8/9. CW-279. Sent from my iPhone using VST

  19. My surgery is tomorrow and I'm freaking out. I'm so scared of complications. What if I don't wake up? Should I write goodbye letters to my kids and husband "just in case". I had Lapband 2 years ago and I don't remember being this scared and nervous. :/ Scheduled for lapband to sleeve-8/9. CW-279. Sent from my iPhone using VST

  21. My conversion surgery is Friday (8/9) and I'm stressing. I'm so scared for the surgery. I have 5 children ages 6-15. My Lapband sucked, I've had it for 2 years. I just really scared. I was so sick after my band was put in and I'm scared of complications. I know this is normal for everyone. I guess I just need to vent a little. :/ Scheduled for lapband to sleeve-8/9. CW-279.

  24. I still have my band. They are doing it all in one day. I was never able to find the "sweet spot". My band is 10 cc anything over 5 cc and I can't drink Water and anything under and I can way whatever I want. Almost 2 years of this. I'm just done with it. I'm 31 years old. I weigh 279 and my BMI is about 52. Right now I have nothing else wrong with me. I want to lose weight, I want to make sure I will be healthy for my babies. I want to go on rides with them and fly comfortable and parasail with my husband on our next cruise. I'm so scared of the "what ifs". When I had my band I woke up in a panic attack bc I had my aunt on my mind. I know she was a severe case and her bypass was done wrong and she had major complications for 9 years bc of it but I just keep thinking "what if". Thanks for letting me vent and thanks for all your encouraging words Scheduled for lapband to sleeve-8/9. CW-279. Sent from my iPhone using VST
