    I also am a band to sleeve. Just had my surgery April 15th and returned to work yesterday. I feel great, almost like a new person. So far so good, I feel like I made the right decision but only time will tell. Good luck and just follow the instructions to the letter and you'll be fine.

    Thanks for that & good luck. I got email from my surgeon today & he said the double operations depend on scarring from band, gastroscopy showed all was good so i am hoping. I wont be able to get more time off until next yr uiff he can't & that scares me in many ways, i dont want that life

    Let me know how your weight loss goes & goodluck

    Hi HappyRock4680! I too am a band to sleever. I don't have a surgery date yet--I'm waiting on my insurance approval. But I too think we are making the right decision. Keep watching this board...there are so many ppl out there just like us who love the sleeve much more than the band and are doing SO well! It's really encouraging. Good luck with your surgery and keep us up to date!! I'm excited for you!

    I just got my official insurance approval today and am scheduled to have my band out and revised to sleeve on June 18th! Surgeon is planning to just do the one surgery so praying it goes well. Good luck, let us know how the surgery goes.
