    Lizzy0827 got a reaction from A_ReNUDE_me in Feeling NERVOUS because I had a breast reduction a yr ago...worried I won't have any breast after the sleeve :-( Anyone have any experience with this?   
    You probably won't. It really depends on your breast makeup. If you have really fatty breast tissue then, yes, you might lose quiet a bit. If your breasts are more dense tissue then you probably won't lose much. I had a breast reduction 10 years ago. Vi had vsg in feb. I have lost about 60 lb since surgery and my cup size hasn't changed. I was a c cup before surgery and I still am. Maybe slightly less full but not much. My band size has reduced some though. I wouldn't worry about it too much : ). Good luck!

    Lizzy0827 got a reaction from JustSayMoe in FEBRUARY SLEEVERS 2013....how you doing after you've been Sleeved   
    NSV for me today. My daughter had been at a camping trip over the weekend. When I went to pick her up, I was walking toward her from the car and she looked at me and said, "you're getting skinny mom!". I haven't heard those works ever : ) it was really nice. I was 221 pre-surgery. Day of surgery I was 200. I had surgery 2/25 and I am now 173.5. It feels really good.

    Lizzy0827 reacted to clk in DC/MD/VA sleevers   
    I'll be three years out in July. I was sleeved by Dr. Aceves in Mexico, but now live in the D.C. area again. This is the first time I've lived stateside since having my surgery, and I'm curious about the support groups in area and how they operate. Are they open to anyone or just to the patients of a specific surgeon? Are they a good mix of vets and newbies? I live in Alexandria but would consider a drive to a meeting worthwhile.
    Did anyone ever put together a social group for this area? I think something once every few months could be fun and informative for a lot of us that don't have other sleeved people around in real life.

    It is the same thing. Actigall is a brand name and the other is the generic name.
