  1. Thank you all. I will seek a second opinion. It doesnt hurt to try. I appreciate all the feedback.
  2. i saw him today and asked about revising to a sleeve. he said insurance would never approve because my weight is too low. has anyone been through this? this has discouraged me. i am very unhappy with my band and it has been difficult to eat. All he said was let's do an adjustment. now i feel like there is no hope. i have to live with this band or get it removed. this sucks but i knew what i was getting into when i got the band.
  3. Thank you for replying. I totally understand what you mean about not being able to eat. It has become frustrating for me. Im so happy for you and your outcome so far. Keep up the good work. You're doing great!
  4. Considering a revision to sleeve. My band was great while it lasted, now the complications are overwhelming.

  5. Hello All, It has been quite a while since I've been on here. I'm currently not too happy with the way my band makes me feel which is why I'm seeking a revision. I''m going to speak with my surgeon about the issues I'm having and was wondering if you all have any advice for me as far as going from the band to sleeve? What has been your experience and are you happy with your decision? What made you choose to revise? Any feedback both positive and negative is ok. Thank you all in advance and good luck to those who have surgeries coming up. Lala

    Is Weight Watchers Worth It

    I agree about the Internet being full of endless ideas, that's why I wasn't excited about the idea but thought id ask anyway. Honestly WW Just seems like it isn't for me. I'd rather pay for a gym membership or extra cardio classes or even some nice workout gear. Thanks for the responses.
  10. Lately I've been needing some extra support with meal planning and meal ideas. I have been considering joining WW but I wouldn't purchase their frozen meals because I eat minimally processed foods. How has anybody experience been with WW. Has anyone tried the new WW 360 program? Thanks in advance
