I know there has been a lot of discussion around hospitals and surgeons; can you please share who you had complete your surgery, hospital and how you found them? I am helping a friend find a surgeon as his insurance will not cover it. I have had the surgery 2 years ago but was able to be covered by insurance so much less complicated.

Surgeon said revision's 50/50 failure!?
tryinagain2day replied to missblonde20's topic in Revision Weight Loss Surgery Forums (NEW!)
I can share my results from revision: banded in 2/2012, lost 25lbs gained 80. Revision 71/2015 and have lost 105lbs so for me is was successful. I say that any surgery, there's always the risk not failure. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App -

Anyone with successful weight loss with the gastric sleeve that had NO success with the lap band?
tryinagain2day replied to DGM's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I was banded in 2012, lost only 25lbs. I yoyo'd for the next year with fill/unfill repeatedly. In 2013, they couldn't find anything wrong with the band but went ahead and unfilled the band. I gained over 75lbs before doing revision in July 2015. I am down 96lbs since my revision and no complications. -
I use Vitamelts which taste good and melt in your mouth.

tryinagain2day replied to Munecagirl85's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Post op I didn't get on scale until my first month follow up. I was still healing and the body is still changing and adjusting. Take your time, relax and it will all happen. -
Non chewable vitamins
tryinagain2day replied to Rhino89's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I found and love Naturemade Vitamelts. I purchased on Amazon but they have them all, multi, B-12, hair skin and nail and I also take Calcium. They just melt under your tongue -
I can only use Asics. I would recommend a trip to a running store as they will help You find the right fit.

What did you tell people about your absence?
tryinagain2day replied to Good apple's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I shared that I was just doing a staycation to catch up on things around the house. Have been losing and gaining for awhile so was not a huge shock when I started losing weight. -

Regretting it already..(day 1)
tryinagain2day replied to ZombieQueen's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
The first couple of days are rough, you just had surgery. It DOES get better everyday. I was sleeved on 7/1 and today I am so so glad I did the surgery. I am down 74lbs and feeling amazing. -
I was sleeved on 7/1 and down 48lbs. Was originally banded 2012, with the revision it seems to be a slow healing process but don't regret it for a second.
