Hey everyone. I just need dine encouragement. My friend got the sleeve the same day i got my band she's already down 25lbs I'm down 9lbs. I think i chose the wrong procedure. First fill is January 22

I was banded 12-18 and I'm down 12. I am frustrated too but I am struggling with always wanting to eat. I am staying within1200 cals and figure slow and steady wins the race...

Don't expect to lose weight until you get several fills (for most people). But you know what, if my insurance had covered the sleeve I believe I would have gone that route myself. But I have lost 80 pounds with the band and I am happy for myself!

why r u struggling...get an adjustment. isn't that why u got a band?
