I've been watching your boards to see what everyone has been eating to get ideas

All of the esophagitis, ulcers , gastritis and reflux is all bad related. Bc of the restriction. I was on nexium for 3 years and then went off it bc it's not good to be on a ppi for long term because of absorption etc. so I decided since I was gaining weight on the band and having all these issues I would have the band removed. Thought I was too small for RNY. Was going to do it on my own. Best thing that ever happened ? My reflux and esophagitis went away the day the band came out. The worst thing ? I have gained every last bit and more back. So now I qualify for RNY and am due for it on Mar 16!! I can't wait.  I haven't lost a pound in 2 years. Not true. I have dieted and lost 5 here or 5 there but it takes so long. My metabolism is shot and I have metabolic syndrome. Go for the revision.  Don't wait.  I had a terrible couple years personally as I was dealing with all of it.
