Esophagram

Coming up on 11 months since banding....

Went this week for my annual esophagram.  The report - band in great shape - but super tight.
You can see how slowly the barium swallow is passing through the band.  I am amazed that I can eat ;)  He said that if I was have heartburn, he would loosen it but so far so good.  Lost 10lbs in the last 3 weeks so I am not complaining.  I am 12 pounds from my ideal weight - and 10 pounds under my lap band goal of 182.  6 weeks left if I am to make my goal of -126 pounds in one year. 

Also, very exciting, I have my first plastic surgery consult next week.  I am nervous about getting naked but excited about the prospect of having a tummy tuck.  God knows what else he will recommend ;)

Here's a picture of me from my day at NYU.

  1. How exciting about your band being pretty much perfect if a bit tight. That seems to work well for you dear. You are so going to rock that one year goal!!!
