HELP & ADVICE - SHOULD I DO THE REVISION?
bdisaia replied to mecub71's topic in Revision Weight Loss Surgery Forums (NEW!)
I was revised to sleeve on June 6 th they removed the band in the same surgery ! I can't even tell you how awesome this is ! I can eat grilled chicken haven't had that in 5 years ! The sleeve allows you to eat healthy food so sorry that I spent so much wasted time with that ! I am 10 weeks post op I have lost 30 lbs ,I started at 212 and hit 182 today wahoo ! You will love the difference no episodes of being stuck or vomiting and recovery was really a breeze! Best of luck to you it was the right choice for me ! -

bdisaia replied to cameron1209's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I felt pretty good after the first week you might need a nap once you get them to school! You will be able to do it! By the second week I felt awesome ! I revised from the band also! I was sore but I was able to do what I had too .And I'm 54 so I've got a few years on you ! -
