  2. Thanks for the feedback. With the band I always got stuck and it made life pretty miserable. I never felt full as I always seemed to be in a state of being stuck. I don't mind getting full on a 1/2 cup of food as long as I'm able to eat it and have the full stomach experience. Another thing I won't miss about the band, is the "deer in headlight" look when something went down wrong and I needed to excuse myself to throw up. With the band, I never wanted to eat fruits and vegetables because they would get stuck no matter how small the bite. Jan

  4. Looking to chat with anyone who had revision surgery from lapband to gastric sleeve surgery? I had my band removed two years ago. June 14 is sleeve surgery. Wondering about the difference. With the band I was always getting stuck, couldn’t eat bread or anything doughy. My stomach gurgled on occasion. How will it be with the sleeve? What is the difference?
