Almost 4 years out
I wrote this earlier and it just disappeared from my screen so I will try again.
I am very happy with my sleeve and the longer it is the better it seems to work. I lost a total of about 54 pounds and over the years have gained back 5-7 pounds and stay there.
I just have a good and healthly appetite. I no longer crave sweets and if I do just a little satisfies me also I cannot tolerate greasy food. I stay completely away from bread as I just loved bread and fear I may develope that craving again but it is very easy to just not have any bread - for one thing it fills me up so fast I would not have room for the good stuff. For a short time I thought I was starting to crave sweets again but that also passed. I truely am so glad I had the sleeve and have had excellent results. Once again if anything it gets easier the further out I get from surgery.
I have a question - do any of you use the Gladiator and if so are you happy with it and do you feel it is worth the cost (which I assume is high) my favorite was always the Click (I believe) really liked the taste and they seemed to really satisfy me.
