Hello all,

I was going to go to Mexico for my lapband, but am now interested in the sleeve. Does anyone have any suggestions or stories?

I was stuck between the LapBand and the Sleeve! After I talked to some of the people I met at my Dr office. I realize I wanted the LapBand. It can always be adjusted to fit your needs, but the sleeve is where they take about 80 percent of your stomach and what's left I shape to me like a banana! The sleeve can be stretched if you over eat and there is really nothing to do. The Band can always be adjusted to fit your weight lost goal without having to have anything taking out of your body or remove reroute your intestines. Any complications the band can be easy removed or fixed unlike, the sleeve.
