I was wondering how much weight band to sleeve revisions patients have lost. I currently have the band. It has slipped, waiting on surgery date for removal. I will be getting sleeved probably around April after all requirements have been met. I have heard many people don't lose as fast when they revise from band. Can anyone tell me how their weight loss and experience has been? Thank you

I'm not quite 7 months out and am down 92 lb.s It's a myth that revision folks don't lose much or don't lose quickly. Best of luck to you,

I'm down 53 lbs. since May, but does it really matter the speed of weight loss as long as it is coming off? I've been slow and steady. The holidays were a tough one, but I didn't gain. Now, I refocus and plow on. Just food for thought. Good luck!

I had my revision 8 days ago . My stomach is still swollen so I haven't lost any weight on the scale. My doc said only clear liquid, broth and Optifast for a full 4 weeks and then introduce the soft food stage. I figure between 4 optifast 4x160=720 calories and 32 oz chicken broth and 64 oz of diet ice tea a day I should really see results . I'm only getting "head" hungry only and discomfort at my incision areas but that is getting netter each day

.

Clear Liquids for FOUR WEEKS?! Holy Crap! You are sure to lose quickly! Hang in there!
