I probably ate too much though. I am hoping the sleeve helps in that department.

Usually band-to-sleeve converters feel a lot less restriction than they did with the band. I think because tissue, by nature, is elastic, and plastic is rigid.

So, it will be up to you to pay attention to what and how much you consume. (I feel this is why we say "revisions typically lead to slower losses"... because the patients... and their bodies.... are already used to restriction).

Yes I imagine it will feel very different. I have many many food intolerances and major restriction. It's not a full or satisfied feeling at all. It is basically a stuck feeling. It's more in your chest and then in your stomach. I can't wait for that to go away. I drank all my calories to gain half my weight back so believe me LOL I'm already starting to work on eating real food trying at least with the band and being better in general.
