Carol...I am having my band removed and sleeve done on July 2. The questions you asked were some of the same ones I also was wondering about. Even after a year I wonder do you still have good restriction or when they cut the hunger horomone out ( the hormone that your stomach puts out that is at the top part of the stomach, that is removed), does that always help you to not even wanting to eat?? I worry because of so many gastric bypass people end up gaining their weight back?? Go luck and thank you. Sharon

Also I would like to ask what time does the sleeve chat group meet and on what day. I tried to find it but I cannot..thanks

I am scheduled to have band out and sleeve done on July 2. Thank you all for your honesty. We need the truth. Hopefully and Prayfully this is my answer to losing weight.

I have had my band for 2 and half years. First year great, lost 60 lbs, but since then, fill and take out, fill again and take out, this has happen 8 or 9 times( and have gained back a little over 25 lbs. ), so now I am scheduled for sleeve in 2 weeks. My question is to the ones who have had sleeve awhile. I know several gastric bypass people who after several years gain their weight back, is this also possible with the sleeve?? Do you still feel restrictive after a year or more. But, since they remove the hungry feeling hormone area does this keep you always not feeling hungry or wanting to eat?? I know the pain will be worse than the band surgery (hoping not to bad, so please tell me the truth on this also). Please comment as soon as possible. Thank you

thanks,, your message helps to encourage..I have my sleeve surgery in 2 weeks. I had band done 2 years 6 months ago. Did great first year, down hill since. reading all these quotes help..Thank you

Wow, you sound great. My surgery is scheduled to happen in 2 weeks. I know it might be a little rough road to start out with, but reading comments like yours really help. thank you.

Hello Everyone..This is my first time to post. I had the band 2 years and 6 months ago. I will have the sleeve done in 2 weeks hopefully. Loved reading y'alls comments. Would like to get in chat group or something, but I will hopefully be checking in each day to read comments on the sleeve and anyone who has problems with it or you're loving your sleeve please let me know.
