I have a question for Post op people who have a 40 bougie????   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #82 of 142 |
Hi Everyone ! I hope everyone is doing well and losing lots of weight!
Ok, so here is my question...My surgeon emailed me today because I
asked him what size bougie he does and he said 40. So I would like to
know, those of you who have a 40 bougie, how do you feel?? Still have
hunger issues? Are you losing weight? How many calories can you consume
a day? Um I guess anything else you would like to add would be great!
I'm getting closer to 10% goal and I'm getting really excited! Thanks
everyone!

Melinda, I found out that there is not much a difference between a 32 & 40 so either way I'm gonna ROCK my sleeve and do what I need to to lose the weight. It...

It's great to see you have such a great attitude toward your surgery and the lifestyel changes. So many people argue the bougie size which is so rediculous....
