Band to VSG
I revised to the VSG in March and hit goal in August, I'm now 9 pounds below goal and still losing. It was the best thing I did for myself. There are a lot of factors in revising, such as if you need malabsorption. If so, I would revise to the DS, but only with an experienced revision DS surgeon (which mine is). My band caused me 2 years of problems and major esophageal damage and now 7 months later it is finally starting to heal. I can eat like a normal person without pain.
The sleeve was the right surger for me, but it's not for everyone.
