I'm from Cornwall. Sorry it took so long to get back to you guys ... Work has been crazy lately. I went to high school in Rockland county . Only 5ish days left until I am sleeved. Totally can't wait... As of today I am now 18 lbs from July not much but hoping to lose 2 more before surgery.

Hi, I'm having surgery tomorrow by Dr. Judd. I am having a Band to Sleeve Revision.

I didn't really have to lose weight pre-op until it was discovered I gained so much weight in between visits with him. I had to work my butt off to get to at least 2 pounds less than I was at my first appointment (16 lbs all together). I DID IT! Today I am on Clear liquids. I go in for surgery at 7:30 in the morning.

How are you feeling? Is it what you expected? Are you in a lot of pain? How are you feeling emotionally?

@@missrouzier How are you feeling?

@missrouizer I have been approved and have a date for November 24. I'm super excited

Hi, I am also a band to sleeve revision post op 6 days. I am amazed at how different things are instantly with the sleeve and am very excited about whats to come.

I had band to sleeve revision on November 6 and the difference between the 2 is just mind blowing to me. THIS level of restriction is what I always was looking for in my band but NEVER had. I was 205 on the day of surgery and as of today am down to 181. I am more than happy with my decision and my results

@@2lovebugs2love I had revision 4 days after you with the exact surgery wt. . Maybe we can support each other through this journey.

I've only lost 21 pounds since surgery (yesterday was 2 months.) I was expecting more weight loss and quicker weight loss. Don't get me wrong. I am pleased and still thrilled I had it done.
