Looking for a revision

Dec 15, 2012

I knew my family genetics were very adaptable, but imagine my surprise when I found out via an upper GI that my esophagus dilated to be my new stomach.  No wonder I didn't feel any restriction, could eat whatever, and felt hungry - just not "all the time" like when I was unfilled or when I had no band.

About me - I have been on every existing diet known to modern man (and a few old ones like HCG) and yeah, it works, for a time, but I always "bottom out" at a certain weight and then begin gaining.  I finally thought I found the answer in the Lap Band, well, as you see above, my body adjusted to that too.  Oddly enough, if it wasn't for the upper GI, I would never have known how or that my body compensated for the stomach, absolutely no pain whatsoever.

I did have a great surgeon for the Lap Band, it appears it is working the way it was intended, placed well, etc., it just didn't work for me.
