Donali, is pic #1 of yours a pic of your stoma looking down from the espohogus?

Yes, both Penni's pic #2 (first one, but labeled #2) and my first pic are looking down into the pouch above the band.

Penni was unfilled, but I was not - my pic is showing my restriction at 2.6cc.

Please note that from above, everything looks hunky-dory - it's obvious that a barium swallow would funnel through the opening in the pouch - not flow around the band.

Also please note that once the barium has come through the stoma, there was no chance for it to flow around either of our bands, as mine was just coming through the stomach walls, and Penni's had not yet cleared the stomach walls, so the stomach walls/band would have been a "solid" wall for the barium, and barium-wise, all would look fine.

Penni,

I hope all goes well. I am thinking of you. You are such a sweet person and I know you will be fine.

Am I missing something or WHAT HAPPENED? Did you have symptoms?

Christine.

P.S Let's try and get together again after you feel better. I have tons of free time on my hands.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
