  1. Dr. Fitzer is my doctor. Does anyone have any experience with him? I really like him so far! He was in New York and is noe practicing in Northern Virginia.
  2. I have no idea yet. I will find out on the 29th
  3. I pray this works for me! If not I am just going to have to accept my size and move on.
  4. I have had my band 4/4/2008. I have been on one wild band ride! I have lost weight, vomitted, had reflux, gained all the weight back....just 5 year of trying to reach that all ellusive sweet spot. My RNY surgery is scheduled for 5/15/2013. So excited, scared, and hopeful!
  5. I am wondering if I will be on a diet pre-surgical. I have see my doctor on the 29th. I guess all doctors are different in regards to presurgical dieting.
  6. Scheduled my appointment with the anesthesiologist. May 13th! It seems like this is happening quick!
  7. Great idea! Where do you get the containers?
  8. I pray I am your twin after my revision!
  9. I only buy the vanilla Isopure. I mix it with Hood Carb countdown milk in either white or chocolate. Super yummy!
  10. I get Isopure at GNC. I love the vanilla, no carbs in it and high protein. I add a shot of sugar free flavoring in it. Yummy
  11. That's sounds good! I think I can do that
  12. Can I ask what a meal looks like after surgery? Are you sticking with low carb, high protein? How much protein do you have to eat each day?
  13. I have a wide variety of songs to help me keep moving. I love to dance so I have alot of dance songs. Here are a few I love on my ipod. 1. Boom Boom Pow - Black Eyed Peas 2. Sexy Back - Justin Timberlake 3. Like a G6 - Far East Movement 4. Love Shack - B52's 5. Sexy and I know it - The Kingston 6. Shut it down - Pitbull 7. Bottoms Up - Trey Songz 8. Ridin - Chamillionaire 9. Forget You - Cee Lo Green 10. Gentlemen - Psy 11. Thrift Shop - Mackelmore & Ryan Lewis 12. Gangnam Style - Psy 13. Low - Flo Rida 14. I Fu*king Hate You - Godsmack 15. Whatever - Godsmack
  14. My surgeon told me that 1000 calories a day is what I should be shooting for as well. Can you just eat some SF jello or something to help you if you are hungry?
  15. I am in Leesburg VA. My surgery is May 15th
  16. I cant wait! I pray that I can be successful with rny! Are there any "old timers" on this board who had revison from band to RNY? It would be nice to see if they are still successful.
  17. What are the biggest differences between band and bypass that you have found? I am interested to see how you compare the two.
  18. My surgery is scheduled. Now for the worry part....will this work? I pray this is the answer after this darn band! 5 years of trying to make it work, vomiting, stuck, pain, sliming....horrible. I hope to meet some longer term revisionistas who can tell me this works! This will finally help me!
  19. I am having a band to RNY revision on May 15th. Have you had your surgery yet? We hare the same fears!
  20. Hi All! I just found out my date is May 15th! I am having a band to RNY revision. Excited and scared all wrapped up into one!
