I was banded in 2009 went from 224lbs down to 167lbs. I started having complications with the band in Jan,2012 my body was rejecting the fills, in and out of the hospital, ect.... I am now back up to 200lbs and was approved for revision from Band to Sleeve. My Surgery date is 11/27/13. I'm so happy but nervous! I just need some encouragement from people that went through the same situation as me and had success with it? The past couple years with the band has been a nightmare for me!!!
