Hi, Thanks for your message. You're right we're not very far from each other. Well, I was banded on 3-25 by Dr. Frank Felts. His office is in the Colony and he is great.. no complaints. He says I should have lost more weight by now but encourages me to keep trying and to stay on track. I told him on my second fill that I was able to swallow two horse looking pills for my back pain and he was kind of like your NP and said you should not be able to swallow those but what he said next was a little different that your NP, he said lets go a few days with the fill he had just given me and call him back in if I didn't feel like I was getting the help I needed from my band or good restriction. When I first began the process my weight was 240lbs. During the pre surgery process, I didn't actually try to loose any weight and only lost 4lbs. So at post-op I was 236lbs and bmi was 40. I am now 209 lbs, have lost a whole lot but haven't gained either.
