Band With Plication



Recommended Posts

I had band with plication on 6/13/12, down 65 lbs, with no FILLS! I'm getting to the point of no restrictions....still don't eat like before, dr won't give me a fill until I start gaining any suggestions?

i dont have any fills either but i eat as if i am at full restriction by eating the allotted amount of 1 cup (and focusing on protein) id say keep doing what you are doing as its working.......dont let a (fill) make or break you..

I was the second plication that my dr had done, and the first success one with that much weight loss without any fills, so I want to see how much I can lose without any fills, so I feel a little pressure on trying to prove to my dr that I can do this and for her to show others that it can be done!

It's sorta like the sleeve but with no cutting out your stomach, they fold the stomach into its self and stitch it up, reducing the size of the stomach.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
