...and The Process Begins!



Recommended Posts

I am scheduled for my Orientation on Tuesday 3/6/12....That's next week!!! At Kaiser (South Sacramento....new bariatric center....whoo hoo) to get my sleeve.

I'm not sure exactly what the process is going to be since I was banded from 2008-2010 but at least this is a start. According to the gal on the phone my file has been run by a surgeon already and he said unless I have scar tissue or damage from the band I should be good to go.

And so it starts...bring on the hoops, I'm ready to jump!!!

Wishing you all the best from your band to the sleeve. I wish I would have skipped the band alltogether and just had the band and not wasted 3 years of my life. You go!!!!!!!!!!!!

Good luck on your consult!! Here is hoping that the band didn't do too much damage for you to be revised! :)

      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.
