Thank you for the reply. I was telling my husband about everyone's weight loss pre-op and he wanted to know why I couldn't loss the weight myself if I just continued on a liquid diet. I didn't have a good answer, just weak willed I guess. If I get the band I will still be weak willed and that scares me. I am so happy to hear your Dr. took you off some meds already. This is what I wish for so much and to be able to walk without my lower legs hurting so much that I have to stop after 400 ft!

How has your experience been on a whole with Dr. Neal and staff? I think I will be seeing him when I am approved for my band.

Hi there. I am also new to this site. I am considering Dr. Neal for my surgery when and if I can get final insurance approval. It is looking good right now. I attended one of his seminars in Silverdale recently and really liked him and his staff. Could you tell me more about your experience and how you are doing?

How are you doing today? I was just accepted by my insurance to start the process for banding. I think I want Dr. Neal to do my surgery when I complete all the steps required. Can you tell me anything about your journey?
