    I initially had my sleeve in 2010, and i had an unusually large overstretched stomach at the time, it was the 2nd largest stomach that my surgeon had seen in thousands of procedures he had performed, and i was only about 145 lbs, at 5'8. I had suffered from binge eating disorder for so many years and had stretched my stomach to the point where it was impossible to ever feel full. I had lost the weight initially after surgery because for obvious reasons I couldn't eat, but after a few months i could accommodate a lot more food than what was normal, and within 6 months i regained all the weight i had lost. Now, a few years later, I am heavier than i was before my sleeve. I do have a problem eating veggies because thats the one thing that makes me really full, But all other foods,i can easily eat a whole box/container of whatever there is, and exceed my calorie needs for the day within 10 minutes.I'm very scared of having the re-sleeve because of complications, but I'm so fed up with my weight battles that I've come to drastic measures. You said you did have the sleeve done, you never lost the weight to begin with? Not even right after surgery? I wish they would perform the other surgeries like they used to, like the mini-bypass and DS, because those surgeries actually result in long term weight loss by having the malabsorption aspect.

    Thank you for how you put the comment on my picture. That was my intention with those pics because I knew before the process It would have helped me a lot to actually see the reality of excess skin and all that. That scared me at times more than anything at times. I was so afraid that I would look worse than i already did and then would be just as unhappy. but the truth is the excess skin is not that big a deal. I wish you the best on your journey and thanks again.

Well I called dr almanzas rep today and she said the price was 4500 like I thought the first time I called. Laurie was her name I think I might have called another docs rep she told me it was much more difficult because my weight and a bmi of 40 however I found out today it's not not sure who I talked with but I've been waiting an extra month for the funds because of this person. Anyway I'm fine just paid my deposit I'm coming on the 16 of feb2012 anyone coming at this time im coming alone
