Yay! Congratulations. I had my revision to a bypass at the beginning of October. So glad to finally feel normal. Best thing I ever did getting rid of the band.

Congratulations! I am scheduled for my revision on Dec 7th. I've had so many issues with my band that I almost asked for a refund. Lol. Good luck with your surgery and keep us posted.

Had my surgery sept 22 from lap band to gastric bypass & my weight loss is really slow & im just curious on how things are going for others who had a revision just recently... I heard the weight loss is slower the second time around & im experiencing just that,,, can someone inform me on how things are going for them

It is slower this time than the last time...but not what I would call slow per se. But when my band failed I put on about 40lbs in 3 months...that additional weight is what I'm working. To take off now.

I lost about 15lbs in my first month after surgery and about 16 lbs during the liquid diet. I'm down a total of about 34lbs in 8 weeks if you include pre-op. I fill expect that when I hit the weight I've maintained for the last few years I'm either going to stall or slow right down.

I just found out that my insurance will be covering gym expenses next year I'm excited as I live on a limited income and couldn't afford it otherwise..

I'm just starting the process of trying to get my band revised to the sleeve, about how long did it take for you to get your revision approved?
