  1. I'm in the same boat, trying to get back on track after gaining a lot of what I lost. Maybe being forced to see my surgeon again is a good thing, perhaps it will get me back in the right frame of mind again. Good luck.
  2. Greetings everyone, I just got a call that True Results will be going out of business, this came as a huge disappointment to me because the location I schedule my fills at is near my work. Now I have to go back to the surgical center where I had my procedure done and my doctor only does fills one day a week. I don't know how well this is going to go, I can't take off work to get maintenance once a month - here in Houston, if it's not near you then it's far away. Anyway, I just thought I would share this with any other TR patients who had not yet gotten the phone call.
  3. A majority of us questioned if we needed the surgery at one point or another. Yes, the preop diet has you very excited - most people are successful during that time, but you have to ask yourself - "Can I live on the preop diet until I reach my goal?" I can answer that for you - No, you can't. I hate to be a negative nelly, but you have to be honest with yourself: if it were this easy and something that one could sustain, there would be no overweight people in the world. I know I couldn't lose and keep off the weight without real support - I've tried every diet program imagineable, with great (temporary) success. Once I stopped doing what the plan called for - guess what...?
