Low Bmi-Ers, Happy With Bougie Size? Any Regrets?

[fatiniowa 10]

how do they use this, do they shove it down your throat and then once in belly use that as a guide to cut around?

Yes, like an endoscope

I am also low bmi (33 /34) and I asked in my follow up the size. Which was 34. I asked after the fact. Then I wondered If I had a choice or does he only have one size lol. I would have proffered the largest but I didn't think was my choice. If you have not been sleeved I suggest you ask. I know I would.

Hi Patty!

Thanks for the feedback. How's it going so far? When did you get sleeved?

[Pattyhdz 32]

I got sleeved on the 5 th i am a band revision. Honestly going well other than Bad heartburn. I did not have it before. For most it goes away after a couple months , hope I am one of lucky ones. Was very weak on Clear Liquids and now way way better on full liquids. . Minimal pain maybe just with certain movements and mainly on my removal of Port. Lost 8 since morning of surgery and since started full liquids on Thursday scale has not moved and I am ok with that. .
