New Journey

Nov 04, 2014

So on August 4th 2014 I had my lap band removed. The surgery should have been 2hrs, but it lasted 5hrs. The lap band caused so much damage and GERD ugh... I am so happy that so far I no longer have those issues. On 8/4/14 I revised to an RNY and I am down 40 pounds. Its crazy that I was so sure that the lap band would work for me. I can say it was great for the first few years, but then I start having really bad acid re flux and on some days I could not eat regular food so I would eat slider foods. I ended up gaining about 40 pounds and was scared that I would be right back at 316. Day of surgery for my RNY i was 249. I can only pray that this journey ends up being a lot better choice for me
