Had a great appointment with my surgeon! Got a date of 6/4. Excited and Nervous. My Dr. said he could remove the lap band and sleeve same time. Such a relief. Now the planning of all the appointments. . A little nervous about the endoscopy. But I'm excited about the second chance I'm getting. I'm starting a light Optifast diet. How did everyone who fell off the lapband wagon prep themselves for the sleeve? I'm so scared of failing. Thanks !

Hello all! I was banded in 2006. Not even 4 months banded and I got pregnant and then pregnant again lol. I was told I couldnt get pregnant...they were wrong . My kids take up most or all my time. One of my children has special needs and his needs were being met first. Now its my time.. I hated the band since I had it put in . I lost 40lbs kept 20 off. I always had issues with too much fill not enough fill. Some days were so bad I couldnt even drink Water. I was fed up. Recently I had my band unfilled. It was terrible in my opinion. I dont think I researched it enough. I've made the decision to do the sleeve. I've been struggling like most to lose weight on my own. My questions are now what to do? I Still have the band. Do I go back to my original surgeon or can I seek a new one? What do I need to do? Do I have to do that whole process again like lap band? Which I don't mind doing. Will my insurance give me a hard time? I thank you all in advance! T

Sorry what I wrote sounds confusing. Should of said I was told I couldn't have anymore children then got banded then got pregnant 2 times.

Thanks !

I was wondering if I could be nosey to why would you switch Dr's ?
