Threetimesacharm 1,400 Posted September 18, 2012 Wow great post! I just had my revision on September 10 and it is the best thing that I could have done. I started out at lapbandtalk and it brought me here. I only found out about the sleeve three weeks before surgery. I knew that the lapband is not "forever' that eventually I would have to get it removed. So before I had any complications I did so but it turned out I had a small hernia, so glad I had it. I did maintain a 60 pound weight loss but that was not my goal weight. It is so true that because you literally can't eat healthy foods like Proteins and veggies you start to eat all of the soft, unhealthy foods and it is a vicious cycle. Like lapband is not for everyone neither is the sleeve but I am so happy to have my $16,000.00 lapband now as a souvenir!! 2 FindingMyWay and Butterthebean reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
