  5. I has the band in me 2011 was the first time I had it and I lost 100 pounds in 3 months but I think it had to do with more from contracting h pilorie how ever it spelled .. It Bent my stomach they removed it then they put it back in 8 months later and no weight loss but it stated to slip again . 2013 went to a new dr due to insurance change and dr suh said it was slipping I asked for the sleeve .. Jun 1 2014 I revised to the sleeve .. Still soar . Only. 4 days out still only drinking broth .. Not on pain meds either . I my self am excited about the new life style . So far no complications either .

  11. Hello today is the big day . I am getting a revision from the lap band to the sleeve , I go in at 9:30 am . I had the band put in twice the first time I contracted h pilorie or what ever it was which caused a lot of vomiting and acid . Which Inturn caused the band to bend the stomach. So they took it out but before they did I lost a 100 pounds I was 430 when I had the band drop to 330 . Then they put it in again but just maintained it . But then I started having problems , they now are saying it is bending the stomach and some of the fluid is missing .so now today I will get the sleeve I gained 20 pounds unfortunately .so I am up to 350 ..looking forward for the new lifestyle and hopefully no more constant hunger pains that never seem to get satisfied .
