    Dr. Gritsus

    I know this is an old post, but I do you them. I was banded on 3/26/08 and it was the best thing I have ever done. The office is great and they work with you. Again, this is a great doctor and would recommend it to anyone in the area.

    Weight Loss to Date

    I was banded on March 26, 2008 and as of today I am down 40lbs. It seems slow going, but I know it is better that way. Way to go everyone!!

    I am sorry to hear that. :thumbup: Please do not get discouraged. Just think when you are able to get it you will be even more ready for it then you are now. I had the same issue with Insurance. I had a date with one doctor for 10/19/07 and then two days prior to surgery they decided that they were not going to cover it since the Dr was out of network. Then I found the Dr that did it for me in March and everything went on from there. It only took about 4 months after that. It will all work out for the better. Let me know how it goes. My prayers are with you and your insurance co!!!

    Thanks for the reply. I know there is another support meeting with susanna on 6/19, I promised her I would try very hard to get there. With 3 kids it gets hard. I have my first fill on 6/10. Not sure what to expect. I am so glad that I did this. I have been walking and Susanna want's me to start on toning also. I just got a pilates tape last night I will try it later. Hope to see you on the 19th. Let me know if you plan on going, I would love to meet you. :wink2:

    Hi everyone I am new to this board and website. I was banded on March 26th in Valley Hospital in NJ by Dr. Greddis. I am so happy I had it done. I have my first fill on 6/10 and alittle nervous. Not sure what to expect from it. So far I am down 24 lbs. I have been walking, (need to do more). Just wanted to touch base with people to see how they are doing and how long it took to get the weight off. I would love to hear from people with any idea's for foods, excerise and life in general. Thanks JENN :sad:

    Hi, my name is Jenn I have 3 kids, (9,6,4) and have been married for over 10 years. I had the lapband on April 26, 2008. I am down 22lbs so far. I seem to be in a rut, but I have my first fill on 6/10. Not sure what to expect from it. Can anyone help me. I have Aetna Ins. It was about 6 months. I had to go through all the pre-testing. But once that was done it went very fast. I would love to hear from anyone else. I live in sussex county, NJ. not that far from PA. I started at 312 and now weight 290. I would love to get down to about 190. LONG WAY TO GO. I have been working out, but I have to up the workout. Hope to hear from everyone. :crying:
