Brie_SDmamaofTwins 4 Posted April 4, 2019 Hi everyone! So it’s been awhile since I’ve been on here. I had the lapband for 9 years and did amazing! Until I needed emergency surgery to have it removed 😫 that was two years ago...I’ve gained all my weight back! I was wondering what is your experience from going to the band to sleeve? Pros and cons? Thank you Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KCgirl061 1,532 Posted April 4, 2019 I have 2 friends that went from having bands to RNY. Both have now lost more than they ever had with their bands. 1 ProudGrammy reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brie_SDmamaofTwins 4 Posted April 4, 2019 That’s awesome. Congrats! Ohh bypass, I do hear that you lose a lot with bypass....I just want to get down to 155-160 where I was. It was a perfect weight. I just don’t want to get too skinny if that even makes sense 🤪🤦♀️ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thank you I'm so sorry something similar happened to me. I had a band for over six years and did great till it slipped and had to be removed. I gained a lot of the weight back and I had my sleeve done two months ago. Good luck. This really sucks but I know we can do this! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
