So the lap band didn't work for you?

No. I lost over 70 lbs and put all but 10 back on. I wish you the best of luck, by the way!!

Thanks so much best of luck to you as well I kinda figured the band wouldn't work for me so I didn't even consider that option but it's great you can still do the sleeve

Thank you, as well! One of my coworker's had the band before me and it worked well for her. I assumed it would work the same for me. Since getting the band I know of a handful of people who also got it and it didn't work for them either. But, I have heard nothing but good things about the sleeve so I'm hoping for the best.
