I'm so HAPPY with the SLEEVE!!!



Recommended Posts

Just wanted to share. I 'm so happy, I could CRY thats because I have lost a total of 33 lbs. I had a little stall a few weeks ago. My hair is coming out, but I think it's a good thing, it shows that this surgery worked and the weight is coming off. As compared to the lap band. This is so, so, so MUCH better!!! I have not really kicked in a lot of exercise either. I walk about 3 days a week about 30 minutes around the neighborhood. With the lap band I lost 17 lbs then gained it all back plus more. I will keep you all posted. Thanks for reading......

I am happy for you baby girl. The sleeve really is a great thing. The weight will just keep coming off. I agree, it's way better than the band.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
