Hi Beba: I am going with Dr. Tiffany Jessee, she is out of St. Petesburg I am only paying 1000. The information session did not cost a thing, and my insurance picked the rest up. As far as Tampa General it is a great hospital, I have friends that work there and they are very happy. I am going to Palms of Pasadena on April 7th so I wish you all the luck on this very important passage in your life. Good luck!

I could not do the shakes, So I went all high protein and green veggie. So far I have lost 10 lbs. I also checked with a trainer as well as a nutritionist who both told me that either shake or protein will give the same effect. I had the same withdrawls from sugars, carbs and caffiene and a headache that lasted 5 days! Good luck to all!

You are not alone, I am going through the same thing as you, my date is just around the corner, I am reading all these great post of LAP-BAND® patients and it has been great, of course we are going to make our own mistakes, but at least we are not alone. <a href="http://www.TickerFactory.com/weight-loss/wXjat9t/"> <img border="0" src="http://tickers.TickerFactory.com/ezt/t/wXjat9t/weight.png"></a>

Help, I am trying to do the protein shakes and my stomach can not handle it. Any suggestions that I eat high in protein instead of the shakes??? I have tried the ice and water and it still comes back up!:blushing:
