  1. I was banded in 2006. Weighed about 220 and went down to 165. I struggled entire time with band because they would have to fill and unfill frequently but I was glad to have my weight down. Finally in 2013, the band caused such bad problems, I couldn't even lay down to sleep. They removed the band, removed the scar tissue and repaired a hernia and put in a GASTRIC SLEEVE August 2013. I am now 3 months later and have lost no weight. In fact, my weight is going up daily. My hunger is ravenous and nothing I eat ever makes me feel full. HOW IS IT POSSIBLE TO HAVE A SLEEVE AND BE STARVING AND TO HAVE ZERO RESTRICTION???
