I am attending a seminar on Saturday to learn more on each of them. But I want to know what made you choose one over the other? And those that have been banded and are now having a revision to sleeve why? Cant make up my mind.

Super Nurses With Sleeves (Support Group)
hollisrn76 replied to Need-a-Sleeve's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Im a night shifter labor nurse as well. Im so nervous to organize a routine while working nights and then off. It has really screwed me up. Ive been on nights for 13 yrs. I would love to get onto a day shift just for normalcy but hate the thought of working days. Love my night crew! -

Lap band vs gastric sleeve
hollisrn76 replied to hollisrn76's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Thank you everyone! Now for another question. My husband and I have always enjoyed going out to dinner (go figure right) but we love to go and enjoy each other without kids. I know I will need a huge lifestyle diet change but will I be able to enjoy different foods at some point. Just lots of left overs? Seems so silly but I dont want to give up everything entirely. -
