  7. I also went to Mexico my Doctor was Dr. Lopez you will here good things and bad things about all Doctors just do you research and alll will work out. I did have a hard time finding a Doctor near me to do my fills but I have finally found one and my first fill is Nov. 3 yea!!!!!!!!. You will not have a problem (if you got the money honey they got the time).....I wasn't to happy about the followup care that they said they would give. Phone monthly noway haven't heard from them at all. My Sister also had her surgery done she finally called them and they called her back. They were to call the following week to give us a list of Doctors in our area for fills no call........... Make sure you also check on followup care. I know I chose not to got back for fills but give me some bedside manner please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Surgery went great I and my Sister are doing well and losing weight not as fast as we would like but losing...... Good luck
  8. GO TO THE BB CODE AND HIGHLIGHT ALL OF THE INFO FROM TICKERYFACTORY.COM IN THAT BOX THEN GO TO THE TOP OF THE PAGE AND CHOOSE EDIT AND COPY AND THEN TAKE THAT INFO AND GO BACK TO YOUR PROFILE AND THEN GO BACK TO THE TOP TO EDIT AND PASTE. DO NOT RT CLICK AND DO IT FROM THERE IT WILL NOT WORK.
  9. Try a bra that hucks in the front and don't connect the last two I am large also and that worked for me.
  10. Well Hi Thinjen. Have you been banded yet?
  11. Tricia, Thanks for info I will check in to it.
  12. Do you know what he charges for consultation and fill?
  13. When you stand before God he will look at the inside of you not the out. We are what we feel. If you focus on the futher and not on today or yesterday things seem to work out. I beleave in the power of the Lord. Asking for strenght only works if you except it. Now lets focus on what you will soon feel. And drive that force forward ever moment of your life.
  14. Well I know just where your coming from, but now I am at the point that I wish I had those restrictions again the weight really falls off during this time. You can do it hang in there. In two weeks this will be a dream that you have forgotten. Enjoy the weight loss while you can because it will slow down.
  15. That all sounds so good on paper even doing all that each of you has stated. But when it comes down to that moment when everyone around is stuffing food in their mouths you have to say hey look at me I didn't get this way by giving in. If I want to continue my life in this body I have to say look at me I am beautiful I love myself and I don't want to go back to the way I looked and most of all the way I felt. And turn around and walk away from that want and need to eat wrong. I will pray for you daily because I am with you when you take that forbidden bite. Take baby steps one party at a time.........
  16. Sam wholesale has a atkins type product not to bad and has 20 pro.
  17. I eat about 3 to 4 oz a meal and don't eat between meals. I also seem to not feel up as well I am now in my 4th week and have lost 26 lb. I eat just what the doctor ordered.
  18. I Would Check With Your Docter Is It Heavy. This Not Uncommon With Heparin Better To Spot That Have Blood Clots. My Daughter Has Been Fight Blood Clot And Heparin For A Year Now And Is Finally Off Heparin. She Always Had Heavy Long Period. But What She Was Told If It Continue She Needed To Followup.
  19. Well I had my surgury done on Saturday morning an had to fly out this Monday. It was really hard. I read what others are telling you and I think you need to give yours an extra day. And for sure take someone with you. Most of the nurses speak very little engish and you are in no shape to try to get them to understand what you want. I am still very sore, but back to work for partial days. Dr Juan Lopez Corvala Obesity Control Clinic
