  1. I was banded just before Thanksgiving, and yes I have lost, I feel funny to put my original weight up here, its horrible to think (and see) how bad I have let myself become. I spoke with my physician this morning about the possibility of getting a sleeve (to help with the initial weight loss, my weight is pretty high, ok very) and he said absolutely no for now. I know the band will work, its my lifestyle that I am changing, but I really would like to know if there is anyone out there that has done both, or knows a physician that will do a sleeve after a band (within 6 months after the band), I do not want to remove my band, I would like to do both in conjunction with each other. I am pretty scared to go outside the US, but it looks like from the boards there may be a good physician in Mexico? Any information would be so helpful, thank you!!
