Hello there sleevers So getting more nervous/excited, I'm getting revised from band to sleeve Dec 10th. Soooo with that wanted to hear from my fellow shorties.

I'm 5'3", hovering around 190 (no hating remember I was banded and had lost weight with it and been gaining like a mad woman)

So what's you story? Height, start weight, current how was the recovery process?

Hi. I'm 5ft 2. Start weight 204. Surgery day 196. Today 178. Was sleeved on 10/31. No complications, no pain, no problems drinking, no change in taste. To this day, never feel extreme hunger. hospital stay was 2 days. Overall a positive experience so far. Good luck

That's so awesome, I'm so happy for you

Hi I was just sleeved nov 12th I'm 5 " and 199 pounds. I'm excited to get started with a new life. Happy to have found this form

Im 5' 2" staring weight 237, surgery weight 225, current weight 199.4!! Sleeved 10/3, just moved to solid foods not finding anything I cant tolerate.

I'm 5'0" starting weight 321, surgery weight 309, current weight 296. Sleeved 11/12. Still on liquids, Dr said anything that doesn't need to be chewed . Good luck all.

Im 5'2 and started at 251. I was sleeved 11/14 and spent 5 days in the hospital as of today I am 240.5. So my weight is shedding fast lol I keep looking in the mirror asking where did it come from

Hey ladies, I'm 5' 241lbs have not yet been sleeved. Still considering/ researching and saving money most likely I'm going to MX because my insurance doesn't cover. Hopefully it won't take to long for me to get things together. Because I'm ready for this change. And right now just need support and advice because only one person I know is really on my side and that because she gets sleeved in jan.

I'm 5'2", starting weight 279.6, surgery weight 257 getting sleeved in 45min.

Surgery date 11-14-12, overnight stay, no drains, no catheter, intense CO2 pressure for the first few days, feeling pretty decent now. Weighed myself this morning, and in at 272.
