Any regrets?

I currently have the band and would like to revise to the sleeve. I never asked anyone before the surgery if they regretted getting the band and wished I had.
So do you regret getting the sleeve and wish you had gotten something else?

Psst...wrong forum; this is for VBG, vertical banded gastroplasty. The sleeve is VSG, vertical sleeve gasttroplasty :) so you will get answers there

i got the vbg in2004 i was 306lbs. and went down to 225 for the last 3 years i was ill and in bed i gain 30lbs. now that my health is doing better , my first goaled is to drop that 30lbs., and keep moving. i still look at my vbg as a tool  and I'm going to make sure i use it. best wishes to you.
