I'm following Ally_vsg on insta - she's Aussie.

Hi I'm a Aussie , from Melbourne, I was sleeved on the 24th June so 8 days post op! Have you had your op yet?

Hey I'm
Also from
Melbourne and was sleeved on July 5 th of this year

Perth here... had a banded sleeve 5th dec 2016

Hey Erica I
Also went from band to sleeve it's only been 3 weeks and I've had a few issues but have lost 15 kilos so far . How have you been ? Are you much happier with the sleeve than the band ?

Hi there..
I've never had the band I've just got the banded sleeve which is the sleeve with a minimiser ring.
I lost my weight quite quick as I was considered a low BMIer to begin with. So far it's all been ok although I'm still learning how to eat slow lol
My health has improved as in my bp is better and everything seems to be normal.
How are you feeling?...
what issues have you had if you don't mind me asking?...

Ahh ok sorry thought you went from band to sleeve like
I did
Yes I'm having trouble eating slowly and also not drinking with meals and waiting the 1/2 am hour !
Because mine was from band to sleeve I had more scar tissue and the operation was longer so I took longer to recover . I have had diarrhoea since the first day and gurgling on my left side under my rib . I have also been hospitalised for dehydration and low blood pressure which was a week ago . Also had one of my sites infected and needed to go on antibiotics so yeah it's been a bit of a challenge so far . I have another week off from work as I still feel low in energy and need to get a handle on my hydration and eating schedule . Can I be cheeky and ask
How much weight you have lost ? I have lost 15 kilos so far but stayed at 134 kilos so a long long way to go
