I had my crap band for 6 years. food stuck all the time. Always in pain. Got my sleeve on Feb 25,... It's like night and day. It's so nice to have the pressure in the middle of your chest relieved.

I have the sleeve and I throw up a lot.. Sometimes it hurts like something is stuck (even if it's just a shake) and I vomit and everything is fine ..

I had the lapband for 5 years, each year the throwing up got worse. I was so worried I would have esphogial scarring and I was very lucky to get the lapband loosened until my surgery. After my sleeve I havent had any issues of throwing up, my acid reflux is gone! After surgery I did experince some nausea for the 1st day but it got better and I was so happy.

Each of us is different after surgery wishing you the very best!

Yup I even spent the day in the hospital having tests and they found nothing wrong. He told me stick to just shakes for another week, even though I said shakes do it too not just yogurt and eggs and soup!!

I always thought it was ONLY me with problems with the band until I came here, my doctor never ever mention that there were others, he made me feel like a failure.

I had the band for 6 years and food would get stuck and I would throw up. I was revised to the band and I have that same stuck feeling in my chest and I still vomit. Nothing has changed as far as that goes.

I had the band for 5 years, the stuck/vomit cycle got worse every year. My sleeve was done August 2013 and I have not vomited even one time since then. It's wonderful! No stuck, chest pressure feeling, just regular full feeling like before band. Occasionally I will eat too much or something that does not agree with my tummy and I will feel sick, nauseous and hot for a bit. It's weird, but it passes in about 15 minuets.

I think I lost most of my weight with the lapband due to bulemia. Thru up almost everyday. It was so easy. I just bent over and up would come whatever I just ate.

Had sleeve revision last July (8 mths ago) and I've thrown up twice (my fault. Ate too much). Sometimes I actually MISS easily throwing up. Now it's much, much harder. If I overeat, I just hafta ride it out. It won't come up as easily as it used to.

16 lbs from goal. Very happy with my sleeve. Easily maintaining for about 4 mths.

Good luck! I think ull be happy with the revision...

Thanks for being so honest. I think my success with the band was due to the same reason. I'm 4 days post-op now and I'm nervous yet excited about this new journey.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
