I can't seem to find many sleevers who had their surgery more than 5 years ago. Where are you all? I just want to hear success stories from people who have had their surgery many years ago. I've just cancelled my sleeve surgery as I am no longer fully convinced it works long term. I've had a gastric balloon last year and before I got that I was on another forum and everyone said how the balloons worked wonders. Yes, it did work wonders and I've lost over 25kg but have gained half of that back over the last 10 months. Looking back, I realise that I hadn't really seen many posts on the other forum of people a couple of years after they had their balloon out. Now that same thing seems to happen with the sleeve. Most of the stuff on the Internet is from people who have just recently had their surgery. Can anyone help?

I've got my surgery on 22 Nov and I am so nervous. But at the same time I can hardly wait to start my second life. I am putting everything into this and have started to write my thoughts down in a diary. Good luck to everyone who's got their surgery in Nov.

Tomorrow, the 11th, is my day. As of this morning, I have lost 16lbs these past 2 weeks. I'm so excited.

Tomorrow is my day to a new chapter in my life. I lost 25lbs on the pre op.

So went for my last appointment Friday and looks like I got approved by insurance early. So my surgery is still on for November 18th, finishing my first week on pre op diet. Only one more week to go , can't believe how fast 6 months have gone by.
