Ken Hollis for Lap Band Surgery?
· Dixieland · 07/24/2009 19:17
Does anyone here have Dr. Hollis as their lap band doctor? I really do like his staff, especially Cindy, although all of them have been very nice and informative. Any information about him as a doctor, would be appreciated. :thumbup:

After Surgery Diet Plans?
· Dixieland · 07/30/2009 18:51
I know that right after surgery, I will be on soft foods required because of the lap band. After I level out with my eating different types of foods, are we required to use a certain diet plan, or can we use our own? Myself, I like the atkins diet plan. It works for me and my family. I have not heard anyone say anything about using this diet plan. Just wondering if you are told not to use it for some reason, or most people just don't like it? Just wondering?

Must diet, but not to loose?
· Dixieland · 07/24/2009 01:45
I was told by my nurse today, that I need to be on a strict diet, (recording all meals) for 90 days without loosing any weight. (Insurance requires this, not the Doctor) The only way I see to do this is to follow the diet, but eat on the side also. lol And who is this going to fool? The insurance Company? Maybe they think people will loose the weight and not get the much needed surgery. Thank God, my Nurse was kind enough to tell me not to loose, because I would have tried to loose as much as possible, and probably not been able to get the surgery. Has anyone else had this problem? My bmi is 40, and I use the sleep apena machine. :cursing:
