There is a lot of reading to be done here. I have been trying to keep up with a lot of threads and find that I must just pick and choose the ones that catch my attention that day! Lots of information to try to absorb.

Just got back from having my 3rd fill. Last week the fill was too tight and the surgeon had to take some out. Of course, I then didn't have enough restriction! So this morning he added another cc and I am now up to 4. I feel restriction with this fill and if it really bothers me, I am to go back to the Dr. and have him take some out. I hope I don't have to do that as I am anxious to find that sweet spot soon!

You have lost a good amount of weight so far. Do you want the band because, like me and others, you can lose the weight but then you gain it ( & possibly more) back again?

Wishing you all the best.

      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.
