I have a bmi around there. I was banded on 9.17.12 and have lost around 22 lbs since pre-op. now I'm fully healed and can eat what I want, combined with hunger creeping back in. First fill is Monday thankfully. I need to keep the momentum going!

How do you feel?

Wow we were banded 10 days apart! I am feeling better every day. But when I got the EGD the doctor took a biopsy and found out I had an infection in the lining of my stomach.. So I have been feeling with that. I have been eating mushy foods like creamy Soups, mashed potatoes, yogurt and cream of wheat... It's getting really old!!! I get a fill on 10.25. Do you find if I ask who your doctor was??? Feel free to message me! Thanks! Are you nervous about your fill? And about how much are you eating a day?

That sucks about EGD. Hopefully that will clear up soon.

The surgeon I used was Dr. Hong.

Not nervous about the fill at all. I'm actually fully healed, can eat whatever I want and in a pretty dangerous place. Im trying to stay to a cup of food per meal, but am only successful about 70% of the time. The fills can't come fast enough....

I have a low BMI but not as low as you! I was banded 7-31-2012 at the weight of 197. I am now at 165-168. When I had my EDG done I also had an infection and had to take antibiotics for two weeks before my surgery.
