Hello from Sunny California!!

[LilMissDiva Irene 3,282]

Hi my name is Irene. I currently have a Lap Band, but have found the Sleeve very interesting. I was at LapBandTalk since Sept of 2007 and got my band in that time. I don't think my band has turned out to be what I'd hoped, but only a few months of being banded in Feb. of 2008.

I have been in that time looking into this procedure. I haven't made any conclusions yet on what I want to do, but first I need to get my head on straight. I need to learn how to eat properly again and get back on track.

Just thought I'd give a hollar and say THANK YOU for creating this great website geared specifically for the Sleeve!

Welcome! Your lap band might be just the thing, but if you end up revising to a VSG, I don't think you will be sorry. I'm almost three years out, and love mine!

Elisabeth - you send your rain to Las Vegas and I'll send you some of our sun. I can't even remember the last time it rained here ... and we're already over 100 in temp and summer only officially started on Saturday.

Welcome! We have a pretty great forum if I do say so myself!

I think you'll find quite a few band to sleeve folks here, me for one.

What exactly is going on with your band now? Are you having problems? Or is it head stuff? Do you have good restriction?

Maybe we can help.

It's rained 18 out of the last 20 days here and more forecasted for tomorrow... let's switch. LOL.

Sounds good to me - we need the rain. Only problem is that when it rains, it's like the first snow storm and the idiots don't know how to drive... since it rains so seldom, the oil builds up on the road and when it does rain early on it's like driving on black ice.
