Sleeve tomorrow and I'm ready to get it done.

Approved for revision from lapband to sleeve. Excited.

Still waiting for approval, feeling nervous but inspired.

My insurance papers have been submitted for approval, and I'm on pins and needles. I'm hoping that I get approved very nervous. Anticipated surgery date for revision is December 18, 2014.

EGD and nutritional consult done now I'm just waitng for insurance approval. My surgery will be an all-in-one that's just what I prayed for.

Very excited about my upcoming revision from band to sleeve. if everything goes well should be sleeved before the New Year.

Fill on Tuesday and I have noticed great restriction so far. I'm eating 3 meals a day half a cup each and not hungry. Hoping I'm finally set been on a plateau almost 1 year.

Fill today hopes this helps me with getting back on track. Scale went up and i did not have to ask PA said get on the table mam lol. It's good when your caregiver recognize your needs.

down 8.2 lbs in 3 days since 0.3 cc removal. Hopes im back on track.

Unfill today 0.3 cc total in band 6.8 cc. I kept saying I was tight finaaly an NP that listened, now I have a small dilation and 1 week of liquids and 1 week soft. Back to the basics but hopes this jump starts my 5 month plateau.

I am in onederland and so happy, I had to treat myself. 60 lbs off now hurray. 0.4 cc removed d/t occasional heartburn and slow weight loss, but I'm back and the weight is now dropping again. Goodluck fellow bandsters.

New pics posted. Im 0.9 oz from onederland. Hope your journey is going well. Still learning to utilize the band this is a life long process. Some days good, some bad we must not lose focus. Goodluck.

55 lb total lost going for 5 + lbs this month to hit onederland and 60 lb lost, wish me luck lol. Have been toning over a month and the results are unbelievable with the skin. Beefing it up a bit with some aerobics this month, good luck all hope your journeys are great.

-53.4 lbs and I'm not complaining, it's been slow but well worth it. some months are better than others. Only 5.8 lbs left til onederland can't wait. Hope all of your journey's are wonderful as mine.

Went to my first support group last night and it was great. Will be attending every month, very informative and just felt like home being around other bandsters.

Down 13 lbs in a month, no fill needed. I think I'm in the green zone. Good luck all.

Next fill scheduled for 10 am this morning, don't think I will need it but we shall see.

13 lbs til onederland, out of the twoteens finally. This journey has been wonderful for me, going faster than expected. Goodluck all on being successful.

16 lbs til wonderland, hoping I will get there by July. Hope all is going well banders.

Up my protein shakes and feeling great. If you can eat much, you must replace your body with what it needs. Hope all is well.

40 lb total lost. Hit the twoteens today, hope I'm in the greenzone. This is the best thing I could have ever done.

Tryin to increase my protein/water intake been a struggle, I hate water at least 64 oz of it. 2 more days til strength/toning training yeah I'm ready for it.

Down 4.2 lbs today very pleased. Hope I am off my plateau. Losing inches but no weight x 2 weeks, but was told the inches come before we see lbs off the scale.

2nd fill was better got lidocaine for numbing. Felt weird this time though, I could feel the fluid going in & felt when she finally hit it. I did not notice that last time.

2nd fill on Friday, can't wait to get to green zone.
