Hi Alex,

I'm wondering if there is anything that can be done for someone in a case such as mine who has had two bariatric procedures done?

I had my lap band in May 2013 and still was ~150 lbs lighter when I had my revision-to-gastric sleeve done 2 weeks ago on August 24th... it seems like I'm only able to merge the info together which either makes it look like I had the gastric sleeve done in 2013 OR that I lost 160+ lbs in 2 weeks while it's pretty funny it also makes my history appear very misleading.

Thank you!

Good point! I'm going to address this within the next few weeks, thanks!

i have seen similar situations on the board

why not try something like

DOS

May 06 2013 - lapband

SW weight

#s loss 150

DOS

Augusts 24, 2016

revision to gastric sleeve

SW 209

(i think i messed up #s somewhere )

#s loss

GW

make 2 tickers

first could show # lbs lost with lapband

2nd ticker showing SW with gastric sleeve

i wrote this tooo long

but you can figure out what i meant (i hope)

you had an amazing successful run with the lap band

150 lbs down!!!!!!!

you are aces!!!!

you'll do great now too

good luck

kathy
