I did my reaserch on this surgery. I was really prepared. I had several friends that had it done by several different doctors. Most had a very positive outcome. I heqrd all the stories about how to "beat the band" and not being able to swallow their own spit. Big weight loss and NO weight loss. All I wanted was to have some restriction as to how much I could eat. I could recite every diet plan every carb value every weight watchers point.,.......but that didnt help the fact that i LIKE to eat. Maybe its comfort food.........maybe its emotional who knows?????????
So I had the surgery on April 18th 2011 I had to loose weight before the surgery Yada Yada......so I mangaed to loose 20 lbs. That was a good start i thought. Well that is ALL I have lost. actually gained at one visit. I have had 3 Fills and still have absolutely NO restricition at all. I can still eat whatever how much of whatever whenever. I have talked to the doctor and the nurse who helps with the fills . I have made it clear I thought that i needed the restriction!!!!!!!!! so they keep saying they are filling and i keep eating.
I would really love some feedback on any other surgeries that have not gone as expected. Or maybe what Am I doing wrong? Oh and I havent been able to exercise at all due to having surgery on my foot so I know that is part of the deal But Geez Am I asking to much for the restriction I was told I would get????????
I dont want to sound like a negative Nellie but .........................I am at this point. HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!
