I am scheduled for Aug 25th and currently in day two of pre-op diet. This is my third procedure as I had a band which worked famously for me (-130lbs) until I suffered an erosion and had to have it removed. I lasted two years at a stable weight near my goal but the last year has been tough and without the tool I've gained some weight back...

Thanks to all the posters on the forums as I'd been away and learned a bunch before making my sleeve decision since I've been back.

Thanks and good luck to you all in your weight loss journey.

Are you having another lap and? Good luck, I am sure this has not been easy for you, but we all strive to be the best we can be! Keep up the hard but great journey!

Thank you for the kind words. I'm having a sleeve done on August 25th. My doc doesn't recommend re-banding... The band worked extremely well for me so I'm hoping (and confident) that the sleeve will be as effective a tool for me!

Proud that you have not given up. The sleeve was great for me and my husbasd. Easiest surgery ever despite the fear. Life is gtreat. Be good to yourself. We are 70 and three years out. We are having the best time of our lives. Good luck!
