Hi All!!
I am new here. I originally had a lap band procedure in 2008. I lost 130 lbs, but gained it all back. I also had complications... my esophagus got infected and stretched out after going months with my band too tight. My Esophagus basically turned into a 2nd stomach (Yuck!). Anyways, I had the lap band removed and got the sleeve on April 29th. I lost 20 lbs right away, but haven't lost anything in the last 4-5 weeks. I'm worried! I was told by my doctor before surgery that I would have a decrease in appetite and would have to remind myself to eat, but, the opposite has happened... I am hungry all the time!! Has anybody else had this happen to them? I'd love to hear your stories
