Hi...I'm getting banded next Friday and have a BMI of barely 30...I'm wondering if there's anyone else out there that's had success with a lower starting BMI?
I'm also wondering if everyone needs a fill...is that standard? Does anyone ever not need a fill?
Can you ever have a soda again? Or go to dinner with friends and eat too (I'm not sharing my surgery status with friends)?
Everything I see says they're only eating 3 bites of food after banding...is that forever or just following surgery?
I want to eat less and lose weight, but I'm afraid of looking like I have an eating disorder since I'm not telling anyone about my banding. Will I ever eat normal again? (And by normal - I mean healthy food and smaller portions, just not "3 bite" portions).
Please...tell me the straight truth!

WOW...what a great response. Thank you all for your stories and help. I went in and was banded 2/24 and am sore, gassy, sick of broth, but overall very happy and looking forward to a life of eating less and being a lot happier with my body!
Thank you so much...I wish I could say more, but I don't know what to say...your stories inspire me and are very helpful!
Thanks!!!
