I go see a surgeon at NYU next week and I wanted to know if getting the gastric sleeve done is better than the lap band ??

Before I decided, I did alot of research on the lap band. I have found that a majority of people that have the band wished they got the sleeve or they have had the reversion already. I personally could not imagine having to go get fills every so often. I also was not keen on being able to feel the port. The stats I read had lower success on over all weightloss. I am only a few weeks post op and I am happy I did the sleeve, but it is a big adjustment as is any weight loss surgery. Good luck!

The failed numbers of people's weightloss on the band, plus my own family members failed experience on the band made me chose sleeve. Also, the stories I watched on youtube of people who documented their weightloss sold me on the forced portion control the sleeve gives
