  1. Preferbly looking for a fill doctor in South Dakota who will take a patient who has had lap band in Mexico
  2. have you gotten them in the US or have some of you gone to Mexico? I am 80 lbs overweight and don't know if anyone will do surgery on me in SD but I will tell you this, everytime I go on another diet I GAIN weight! I am sick of it!!!!!!!
  3. Has anyone had experience having the surgery in Reynosa Mexico - Dr. Cantu? what is the cost? his experience? the facility?
  4. To me being restricted enough feels like: I eat 2-3 oz. of protein and 1/4-1/2 cup of veggies and I feel full and am not hungry for 4 hrs. The cravings are gone. I am eating to be healthy not to be full. This is a new feeling for me, I have always wanted more, more, more. If you are getting stuck you may not be chewing enough. It is like you can't chew enough sometimes depending on the food! Email in private if you want. Lucy down 46.5 lbs, 10 lbs from goal 3.1 filled in my 9.75 band
