I just was banded by Dr Zapata on June 14th, he is wonderful! his staff is great, the hospital is nice the hotel was very very nice and upscale. if you have any questions you can email me direct also.

well I have to find a doc here in Fort worth, my doc is in Mexico, he will do a fill at 4 weeks but likes you to wait for 6. that is the biggest drawback about Mexico surgery. it was great otherwise. I am just worried about gaining weight, I am going back to very mushy and liquids I guess. I am not patient at all, but I can do this! thanks for the support. I can tell I am loosing inches so I will stop whinning.

I was told I have no restricton in the band until my first fill,I am only 28 days out from being banded. I am walking on a treadmill about 30-45 minutes a night and using a gazzell also. I am not sure how soon I can have my first fill.

ok all you long timers and encouragers! I was banded on June 14th in Mexico, Dr Zapapta. I have lost about 12 pounds, and inches for sure. I am getting my appetite like crazy. I am eating to much, still not as much as I used to,but I am afraid I will get there again. I am working out daily but the scales are not moving. I am more worried about eating too much. I am still eating soft stuff, but alot of it. is 4 weeks time for a fill? I feel no restriction at all. also do you know any fill Dr's in fort worth that take Mexico patients? I am kinda feeling down today and fearing I am not going to be sucsessful. I need ideas as to what to be eating I guess. maybe I was not as prepared as I thought. any ideas?:help:

I had my surgery on June 14th, His staff was great, the hospital is wonderful. I was so pleased. Dr. Zapata speaks wonderful English, his staff does also, the floor nurses do not but they manage to understand you. I was treated better than stateside!..I am considering dental work there also. walk walk walk, that will help you feel better sooner. I layed around to much and had gas from hell! the more I moved the better I felt. good luck follow the rules . I am 21 days out and have lost 12 pounds and alot of inches.

I was banded by Dr Zapapta on the 14th of June, good luck! He is wonderful
