  1. Thanks Lap dancer. The picture explains more than my commentary ever would.
  2. Jessica Rabbit was the female cartoon wife of Roger Rabbit in the movie. She was a tall red head with an hour glass figure and huge boobs. Take it as a compliment and go on unless he becomes really creepy...
  3. Touche :cry
  4. $1.99??????? A friend of a friend has a sister in law who's mom's best friend and her husband had it done two for a dollar!:bounce:
  5. Seriously folks, I don't know what all the fuss is about. I have read the entire HP series and my daughter and I have seen every single movie. We LOVE HP! Reading the books, I seriously don't see how this revalation is a need for alarm. Most children would not read that much into the books to even realize that Dumbledore was gay. To those people I say....get over it! But that is just my honest opinion.
  6. A dollar! I am so disturbed that I would not get free fills for life after paying $100.00 for my band.
  7. Ouch. Didn't see that one coming.
  8. "Static Discharge" :omg: WTF
  9. AWESOME Caramel! Way to go. That was fast! I am a little more hopeful now!
  10. phlyinphebee that is great to hear! I am super excited about getting this done and cannot wait until January!
  11. Dr. Sartor is the only lap band surgeon that I know of in Monroe. He performs the surgery at the P & S Surgery Center. I don't know anything about Dr. Sartor, but a friend of mine has a consultation with him tomorrow so once she tells me how it goes, I will let you know. Dr. Merriman is a surgeon in Shreveport and he actually had a clinic tonight at the Holidome. A friend of my husband had his lap-band performed by Dr. Merriman and I have heard nothing but good things about him. I am actually working with Lap Band for Less in Calhoun who works with a surgeon out of Dallas, Dr. Cribbins. The Calhoun Family Clinic has a doctor there who has been trained in fills and does them for Dr. Cribbins patients. I prefer the Lap Band for Less because they treat my insurance like in network even though it is not. Which means on the surgery I pay 10%...which they said they eat. They put you up for two nights in the Raddison (which they say is on them, but I am sure is covered by whatever my insurance has to pay to them). Then for Dr. Cribbins, I pay 10%. So all I am really out of pocket is the 10% for Dr. c.
  12. Hey. Anyone from Monroe/West Monroe or the surrounding areas out there? :whoo:
  13. Hey there! I am in West Monroe as well.
  14. Calhoun Family Clinic in CAlhoun does fills
  15. Hey guys. I am from West Monroe, LA. I am currently in the process of getting all the needed documentation for my insurance co.
  16. Has anyone used Lap Band for Less in Monroe, LA? If so, please tell me about your experience.
  17. Got a call back from the shrink. Would be $350.00 as self pay. Think I am going to wait until it's covered.
  18. Thanks for the feedback Shelby! I appreciate it!
  19. Hey newimage....what kind of post op diet did your doc put you on. Just wondering if Dr. Cribbins does the same thing.
  20. I went for my nutritional evaluation today. I have my letter from them recommending that lap band..yada yada. I am waiting to hear back from my shrink to see what he would charge me to pay out of pocket for the psych evaluation since my current insurance company does not cover it. As always...will keep you posted on my journey!
  21. Thanks. I will check into that! I appreciate all the feedback! :mad:
  22. Yay Jelbel! That's awesome. Keep us posted on how it goes!
