I wanted the sleeve...True Results said: you'll do fine with the band, it will be slower but you'll get to your target within 24 months. I wasn't happy with that number, but I accepted it because the band was the least invasive, reversible and if it didn't work I could always do a sleeve revision. I'm so happy to say, the band worked in half the time I was told, it wasn't nearly has difficult as I thought and I've had NO complications even after battling a stomach virus that caused me to VIOLENTLY VOMIT from below the band at least 8 times before I was able to get treatment. Say what you want about the band, this thing is amazing!
