De-banded this week

Cathy, you are a real trooper and on your way to being a real success story-even without the band. Please keep posting and lose along with us.
Hugs...

Wow, I'm sure sorry to hear about the complications and that you had to give up the band. I skimmed over everyone's responses, so if I'm asking a question that's already been asked, please forgive..

Would it be possible to put you in a bigger band? Say the VG band? Do you have any hopes or plans to try again?

I'm not even thinking of putting anything on my stomach again. Even Dr. Rodriguez wouldn't bring that subject up while I was in Monterrey. I know, because someone asked him about it, and he said he wasn't going there right now! ;) At the moment, I just want to heal up my esophagus and stomach. As soon as I'm feeling better, I'm going to start walking, and when I'm able to eat solid food again, I'll start measuring it out. I can do this! :)

Cathy
