  1. What flavor crystal lights do you use?
  2. Got the package today. Thank you so much. Everything is awesome! Hope to be able to pass them along to someone else soon.
  3. I need to update my ticker. Haven't figured out how to do it from my phone yet. I have lost 20 lbs so far.
  4. No. Dang PayPal. I have deleted that address many times. I will try to figure out how to pm you my AZ address Burma in my phone now. If I can't figure it out I will on you when I get home from Trick or Treating with the kids.
  5. Yes. I'm in Phoenix so still very warm here (93 today). My pp addy is kolzigrn@gmail.com. Thanks so much! Susan
  6. I am 6 weeks out and kind of panicked at about 3 1/2 weeks or so because I didn't feel full like I thought I would (based on everybody's stories in this forum) but about a week ago things changed almost as if it was overnight the fullness and inability to eat more than a couple of bites before feeling satisfied happened. Hang in there a little while longer.
  7. I'm interested if no one has claimed them. Thanks for offering them!
  8. We moved to Phx from DC/NoVA 2 yrs ago. Small world
  9. I moved to Pheonix from D.C./NoVA two years ago. Small world.
  10. I'm in the NW valley. Dr Fang removed my godaweful band. Great surgeon, little pain, quick recovery. His office staff was very rude though. They kept submitting everything to an old insurance plan I had. How they got that info I don't know. Finally I had after about 6 weeks of screw ups and called the office manager. She straightened it out but the day if surgery I am being interviewed my anesthesia and the office had put severe anxiety in my medical history. I guess they think highly pissed off=severe anxiety. Anyhow it is a shame that surgeons and office staff are a package deal. Dr fang was great all the way through.
  11. Awesome! Hope it goes smoothly for you!
  12. BTW I'm an ICU nurse and am super critical of my care. There was nothing I found questionable and am healing well. The coordinators I'm told get about $1500 per pt so if the incentive was that great I'm sure I'd be peppering forums to my physician's advantage. Just my opinion. Bottom line is you have to be comfortable with whomever you choose to do your surgery----Mexican or US surgeon.
  13. I was sleeved by Dr. Kelly this Saturday 9/22 and i did have a drain since I was a revision.
  14. I had my band for 4 years and had problems the last 3 1/2 with it. Hormonal or stress seemed to trigger inflammation and I was only able to tolerate liquids/shakes. I also had the band completely unfilled at about 9 months out and was that way until I had it removed. I didn't have vitamin deficiencies or hair loss surprisingly. I was never so happy as the day I had it taken out last year. I was just sleeved 2 days ago so can't give any input on that as it is too early.
  15. Good luck to those having surgery today keep us posted
  16. I'm in the NW Valley. Hi Zonies! Getting sleeve Saturday!
