BLAKQUEEN 33 Posted July 23, 2015 I'm also a band to sleeve, my weight loss is also slow. Highest banded at 283 in 2009. I came down to 285lbs by the time of my bilateral knee replacement in 2012. I gained back up to 240lb at the time of my sleeve surgery last summer. I am now only fluctuating between 195lbs and 200lbs. So I feel your pain, I also have very slow weight loss. I also think that it would be better if I didn't work second shift and not have a stressful job. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
