Hi All, I had my surgury 12/2/08 and started at 240lbs since then I have had two fills. The 1st on Jan 6th I was at 238and the 2nd on Feb 2nd I as at 232. Since then I have gotten down to 221 so a total of 19lbs in over 3 1/2 months or in 11 weeks 1.3/4lb a week. Now I know this is healthy so I am not complaing but for the amount I can get down (eat) I should be skinny by now. I am trying to loose weight so my band loosens so I can get more food down as fills are so expensive without insurance. No matter what I do I cant seem to loose very much. I have never eaten this little in my life and now I have began to hate eating because it is such a chore with getting stuck and then throwing up. I am almost regretting getting the band. I am affraid if I get an unfill I will loose less (if thats possible)? Please give me some sugestions. Thank you!!!

I was banded yesterday and so far today I have had 1 glass of Crystal Light, two sugar free popsicles, 3 glasses of water and a cup of watered down tomato soup. If feel great but hungry. I hope I havent over done it?

I will thank you :cursing:

I am scheduled for surgury on Tuesday and was supposed to be on a liquid diet for 4 days prior well there is 1 1/2 days left and I have cheated. I think for some reason yet again I am trying to self sabotage. It chocolate, turkey and sushi. It started with the low fat turkey and sushi but then the emotional chocolate fix was the end. Now I am not sure what to do. Some people say just dont eat after midnight the night before others say they were told to fast. What is wrong with me??? I am so mad at myself???

Hi All, Does anyone know where to get a fill with the x-ray in San Diego and how much they charge. Please help!! Thanks Justine

Hi, Please help - if you self paid in San Diego can you tell me how much you paid and you doctors name, please. I would love to find a doctor close to my home with a good reputation that I can afford. Thanks, Justine11dod

Hi, Has anybody heard of either of these Dr's in Andrew Hajduczek, M.D & Dr. H. Joseph Naim Cerritos, Los Angeles County, CA? They are charging $11,900. Thanks, Justine11dod

Thank you, you are right you do get what you pay for

Hi all, I would like to find a Dr. within Southern California whom has good references and has an affordable price with anesthsia included. I see a few posts for San Dimas but the whole yawning thing kind off turns me off. I have seen some advertised in Oregon and Colorado as well but I dont like to fly. I know the easiest thing would be to go to Mexico but unfortunetly I currently cant. Any sugestions? Thank you Justine11dod 38 5'4 240lb

Does anyone know what Health Net CA Silver Plan requires for the two years of supervised weight loss? The reason I ask is I have been going to an alternative weight loss nutritionist (she is licensed) for 3 1/2 years. She recommends diets and vitamins and test for food allergies. The first year I lost 60lbs with her help then feeling pretty good I paid for a tummy tuck. After that as we all know the weight came back on with more to spare. So I was wondering if she would qualify as a supervised weight loss professional. Does anybody know what the requirements are and what kind of paperwork she needs to give me, how in-depth and so forth? Thanks in advance, Justine 255lbs and growing:frown:
