Hi! I saw your post about having a band and converting to the sleeve... I have had my band for three years now and have lost a lot of weight... (sounds stupid- but "gained" to get it.. up to 238, got a little too skinny, down to 125- but normally stayed around 132-135... I've now suddenly bumped up to 148 and can't budge and ounce, no matter how hard I work out or try to eat well... I can eat more than I know I should, despite two fills... my band is just not working all of a sudden! I think I've had a slip, although my doc says I haven't because I'm not nauseous...) UGH!

Anyway... do you like your doc? Was it hard to get approved? What made you decide to go this route? (And how expensive was it?) I think my hubs would flip if I started talking about spending MORE money on weight loss... we already spent 13k on my banding surgery out of pocket...

anyway... would love to hear from you...

Thanks!
