im new here i was banned in 2010 and had a bad slip and had it removed 2 weeks ago so id really like to have the sleeve. Can someone explain how it works? what causes leaks and are leaks common? what you can and cant eat? or can you eat everything just smaller amounts? thanks

I'm 1 year post op. about 75-80 % of my stomach was removed laparoscopically. Recovery was great! No gas pains. Was ready to return to work in 2 weeks but I took a month to learn my new eating habits. A year out, u can definitely eat more but I've become more conscious of what and how much I eat. I lost 95lbs in 5 mths, found out I was pregnant and due any day now. Gained only 12lbs, all belly!! I have no food restrictions, watermelon was hard at first but now no problems. Only have to take Calcium and a Multivitamin. Best decision I've ever made!! Good luck!!

I see I didn't address your leak issue. I didn't have that problem, and majority of my YouTube family didn't experience it either. I think it boils down to the individual and the doctor, in my opinion..
