Well, I had my band taken out on Dec. 5th. Still in a lot of pain, geez--I think it was worse than having the band put in! Where they took the port out is HORRID!

I thought it was odd that I had no food restrictions after surgery, just " Ok, you're done. Here ya go!"

It is SO weird to eat something and not have it get stuck!

It's nice, but yes, SO scary that I have no restriction. The surgeon told me IF I want another procedure done, I have to wait 6 months--and that he'd recommend by-pass, not the sleeve. I have severe reflux (from the band) and have ulcers on my esophagus.He said the only "cure" for it is the gastric by-pass. They actually remove the part of the esophagus where the reflux is caused. But I don't know that I want another procedure right now. I'm going to give it my all and try to do this on my own. I had lost 85 pounds with the band over the first 2 yrs. Then slowly over the last 3 years, have gained back about 45 of that. I know what I need to do, so I just need to do it.

Amylynns, I'm wishing you a smooth recovery. I know you will find the strength to do what you feel you need to do to get in the healthiest form you need to be in. I am sorry you have been through so much, and I hope the road ahead will be easier and more comfortable for you.
