I am going to be having surgery in the next month or so. Although I realize the sleeve is just a tool, I am so very afraid I will fail at it because I obviously need the surgery because I haven't been able to control this addiction on my own. Also, I had a lap band many years ago that failed, slipped, and had to be taken out. So I feel that I already had one "failure." I would like to think I am going into this surgery prepared and ready for change, but how do we not slip back into bad habits? Will it just happen with a lot of work? Does the sleeve take over the CRAVINGS? Cravings are my downfall, not true hunger. Any advice would be appreciated. I really, really want to be successful at this. I am tired of battling this battle and losing. I want to win!
