  4. True results never had someone to show you how to maintain they just have me papers w instructions. Then again if you pay cash you don't have to go through all the hurdles but I need the hurdles to keep me on point and I need someone to tell me somethin straight up and I need talk groups and excercise groups shoooot I'm fighting for my life back and I want alll the time back to.
  5. I apologize RICKYT? 4years ago True Results the staff was what was wrong. The nurses who have me fill an unfill were always pokin at me blind tryin to act like they knew my situation. I was always too restricted or toooo loose.. After the first year I couldn't afford all the fills and Unfills and trips back n forth. Honestly the band just wasn't for me. I do know one lady on my FB group whom had a tremendous amount of wt loss w the lapband but out of 64 of us about 5 ppl already had a revision or in the process. I have no self control when it comes to food unless I'm on some form of pill or shot helping my cravings go away. I BELEIVE the sleeve will be better for me. I'm type 2 diabetic so I get all Godzilla when I'm hungry or start getting irritable plus my hormones... Stick to the instructions and wt your food a week in advance no bs. Either you "fail to plan or you plan to fail" Be ahead start measuring and freeze, strength train 7days just so u get in the mental habit. Make this work for you. BEAST MODE BRO ur not like me u can do this regardless who u went through for the lap band. Got any pics ?
  6. For revision I'm awaiting for insurance to give me a date but No I pd cash for the lapband 4 years ago. I went through TRUE RESULTS I do not recommend it better to find a bariatric dr near u. They will sit and take care of u very close than an agency pushin wt loss surgeries. They have no idea what they are talkin about.

    Hello newbie here

    What's your MOTIVATION? Is it for your children.. Ur spouse why did u choose this.. Ur your only competition, you know yourself better than anyone else stop cheating on yourself and choose to treat yourself GREAT. Straight up. Real talk that stinkin thinkin is going to put u back to the wt you were before u got the surgery. stick to the instructions or fail. I FAILED. I chose easy foods anything that would go down. The fills got expensive and even then never had a perfect fill. I gained my wt back and more. I chose to have the lap band because I became all kinds of sick w diabetes and my dad had just passed away from diabetes. Now I'm getting a revision because i couldn't practice the instructions so I said so what just gonna slam a yogurt then a strawberry malt anything that would go down. U better not start cheating not even a little.. This first year u will need to learn self control better now than when u gain all ur wt back and more. So I'm gonna get this sleeve now and it will force me to only eat those portions. I'm just be real I was banded 4 years ago I pray y'all make the right choice to treat yourself to healthy instruction just take it one day at a time but don't ever cheat yourself

    Hello newbie here

    Welcome! I'm new too. I'm in the process of a revision from a lapband. - It helps if you get someone to cup their hand and pay u on the left shoulder blade and right under the shoulder.

  10. REVISION (pre)- the nurse for K.Hollis required I be on a liquid diet for 1 week for insurance purposes. I gained 2.6lbs after they unfilled me. I do need to call the insurance myself you know GO OVER HER HOMEWORK TO SEE IF office is jackin w me or is this FA real.i started out w/ A lap-band @ 220.. Then kept looking for easy food to eat cause of all the vomiting issues 5years later I weighed 231.? And now on 4th day liquids and I'm 225.4 at wt in 4days ago I was 228 and the receptionist read aloud the notes they wanted me down to 220lbs before they submit to my insurance PHCS - ALLIED.. Anybody got those insurance? I just want a price what's my 20% gonna be either way if insurance don't do this for me. I'll pay for it cash. I was thinkin maybe this June If get an answer but it take 2-3 weeks after a submission the nurse said. Lookin maybe July sheeshhh idk.
