rxtine 20 Posted February 17, 2013 I am going to do revision if all goes as planned from band to sleeve however I'd like to lose approx 19lbs. Is that even possible with the sleeve? When I go in on the 21st again I will talk with my Dr. She did my band and seems to think sleeve would be a good option. I do not want rny but is that the only way to lose that much?! :/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
joatsaint 2,814 Posted February 17, 2013 Yes it is possible, one guy in my area made headlines after losing over 200 lbs. http://www.kfdm.com/shared/news/top-stories/stories/kfdm_not-so-big-rich-drops-200-pounds-2544.shtml Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VJSlim 156 Posted February 17, 2013 It is very much possible. It takes hard work and commitment - but if you follow your surgon's guidelines, and commit to a new life style it is surely achievable. Holly, a very inspirational member in this board, is on a journey to lose 300 lbs. I think she has already lost nearly 200+ lbs now. You should take a look at her blog: http://www.300poundsdown.com/. I always go back there for inspiration whenever the goal weight seems too distant for me. When you see such committed people, I think it motivates us to not give up. All the best in your weight loss journey! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Support groups and talking always helps, however I need to know its possible before paying out so much and putting my body thru more! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
