Surgery Date Moved Up To July 17

I'm going from band to sleeve in 2 weeks!!!! I'm super nervous! I know there is nothing to be nervous about but since my band and I failed each other I'm afraid of failure again although I am excited about my new journey. Auh!!!!

That is my surgery date too!! Wishing you the best for a new start to life!!

I am revising from band to sleeve on July 9 (in 6 days). I definitely understand your concerns. I, too, am disappointed that I did not do as well as I anticipated with the band. It feels like a waste of a lot of money and time. But this is different. You will succeed. And so will I.

Fingers crossed, I will be a band to sleeve revision on 8/6 - will know in the next 2 weeks if my insurance will cover the revision and will then begin the 2 week liquid diet pre surgery. I totally understand the feeling like I failed w/ the band. and the "what if"...what if the sleeve isn't any different for me? I'm terrified. But I am more terrified of not trying.

Wishing you the best of luck and hoping to hear more about your journey.
