Hi folks, I as just wondering if you had the choice to do it again would you get the band again or get the sleeve?

I am sending this via my phone so please excuse the typos.

If I had to do it all over I would still have the band. However if anything ever happens to my band I know I would chose the sleeve.


Hope this helps
Good Luck on your Journey !!

I am very happy with my choice of the Realize Band.  I am still early in, only a little over 5 months since surgery.  I personally wanted the restriction rather than the reconiguration of my body.  This is only a tool in my journey to a happier healthier life.

My sharing here on OH is from my own experience, strength, & hope.  I am not a medical professional.  Doctors and medical professional know best and their directions should be followed.

I agree with you. I am almost 10 months out, and am happy with the choice I made. I do not foresee anything happening to my Band, but if something ever does, I will have a lot of thinking to do about what to go to. Remember , you have to do the work...the Band, any of the surgeries really, are merely a TOOL...
