I have had great success with the SLeeve, and chose it based on the fact it was the least evasive of the two. I didn't even consider the band since I know people that have had it and remark how they can "Eat around it". I don't ever want to put the weight back on. I started my journey at 425 over two years ago. Had my…

I was sleeved in February of 2013, and was 425. Reached my goal weight of 220 by November of 2013 and have been maintaining since.

Don't try and eat breakfast to be full till lunch. Interval eating is the key to success. I eat 6-8 small meals a day. My breakfast is usually a small glass of cran-grape juice with my vitamins, one egg over, and two slices of wholewheat low cal toast. Snack at 9 is a cheese wedge and some flavored triscuit crackers. Lunch…

Was sleeved on February 25, 2013. Like all the first few weeks were a monster. I unlike a lot of people didn't have so much pain but just gas pain. Walking was my friend for sure. My doctor had me on semi soft food in 5 days. He told me to CHEW you don't need chopped food or baby food you have the best chopper in the…

I chose the sleeve because it was the least evasive. Wasn't too keen on the remove, disconnect and reconnect. More chance for something to go wrong I felt. Was sleeved on February 25, 2013.

currently doing strength training three days a week and cardio the other 2 days. It is helping but the weight loss has slowed to a pound a week to week and a half. I know that the toning is a slow process but I can definitely see and feel the difference. I am down to 230 and thinking I will settle in somewhere around…

I started my journey almost a year ago. I was 425lbs and I lost 50 on the pre-surgery program and had my bariatric sleeve surgery on Feb. 25, and since I am down almost another 80 lbs in almost 3 months. I too tried the gym and proper diet before going this road but had no success. I got stronger but in 3 months of working…
