I am a little nervous about surgery tomorrow, but I have all faith that things are going to go well. I will be happy to have the band out. I will be even happier in 4 weeks when I get my sleeve surgery.

I had the lap band surgery in January 2010. Within 4 months I lost 85 pounds, however I started having complications with the band and had to have the fluid removed more than 5 times. The band is coming out Sept. 27 and 4 weeks later they will he doing the sleeve surgery.

Congrats! I got approved yesterday. I had my labs done today, go to my PC doc on Monday for final clearance and then I will get my date. Should be the last week of October/first week of November. I have my lap band removed in two days. Getting a little nervous. -
Hello Everyone! I just joined this site, as a recommendation from a friend of mine. I am actually having my first of two surgeries this Friday. I have to have my lap band removed and then in 4 weeks I will have the sleeve. I have completed all processes and insurance has approved everything. I am excited and nervous.

My doctor was going to do it all at once, but said there was too high of a risk of complicatons. Good luck with your surgery. Did you have any success with the band? -
I am having my sleeve surgery at the end of October at Banner Gateway. On Friday Sept. 27 I am having my lap band removed.

It is normal to be nervous, but in the end it will be worth it. Remember this is just a tool to help you. You will still have to work at it. I say do it!!!
