So you've chosen to get the sleeve? Or sleeve Plication? They are definately different. I can say, with the sleeve you can prettymuch lose whatever amount you want. And yes, you can arrest or even reverse weight loss by adding more calories to your diet. And yes, your husband is partially correct about the skin. With a sleeve you will likely lose weight after than your skin can keep up with, but that is temporary, though many sleevers reach goal weights in under a year your skin will continue to shrink for up to 2 years, so it can catch up. You are much less likely to be left with any extra skin when all is said and done.
