I have gained back 5 of the 23 lbs I lost, just since being promoted to pureed foods. Tomorrow I am supposed to start on soft foods but I am scared to death. I am pretty sure I will get a fill on the 16th, but I thought I would still be losing at this point. The doctor told me last week that I could advance to my regular workout instead of just the treadmill, which I did. Do you think it's muscle? I have a hard time believing I gained that much weight in a week just in muscle. I am getting scared. Should I go back to liquids until I see him on the 16th? Has anyone else experienced this? I log my food, weight and exercise in livestrong.com so I know I am keeping between 900 & 1200 calories per day.

Was notified Monday that surgery was approved by insurance and got my surgery date this morning. It will be Monday November 25th, which is great since that is a short work week anyway. I can't wait until this is all over and I can start on my post-band journey of healthy weight loss. It gave me a good start, that's for sure.

Hopefully you aren't over eating or eating burgers and fries. Stick to an Atkins type diet and should be fine. The problem is over time, the reflux will erode your esophagus and you will end up like me...not able to swallow Water. Don't wait. I am confused, though, that you said you haven't seen a doctor in 3 years?
