lalbert 6 Posted June 24, 2012 I am so happy to find this group. On June 21 I had the 6 year band removed and was sleeved. My surgery was done by Dr Robert Sewell in Southlake, Texas and I can only say wonderful things about his staff and the hospital staff. I have read so many post of people with horror stories that I know I would have appreciated some guidance. I drove 3 hours for visits and procedure. It is Sunday morning and I am feeling very well. I did have throwing up from anesthesia and if it had not been for that, not sure I would ever needed pain meds. I am excited to see what others are experiencing on my same time frame. I have been walking and sipping and trying to follow instructions. Thanks for sharing and I am looking forward to onederland which I should be at next week. I have lost 13 lbs so far. I sure hope I never see the 200 lbs again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
