There's been varied opinions on sleeve size, common channel length and weight loss results.  Just curious  as to what size sleeve and common channel you all had and what your results have been. Could you please share the following:

height, years out since surgery, starting weight, present weight, sleeve size, common channel length and please share if you have had any difficulty maintaining.  Very curious to see what your results look like. I know there is a lot more that goes into individual results but trying to see if there any trends.

There isn't.  We have looked many times.  Quite a few people with 200 CC make goal and there are others with 50 who don't.  Men do better than women generally.  But men outperform women at every kind of weightloss.

 

What's the name of that site with everyone's stats listed?????
