Wow. I feel like I must have missed something, although I'm sure I read all the responses, including my own, more than once. I really don't understand why you're so upset. Who, in this thread, is letting their weight loss go to their head? All I've seen is people trying to answer the question you asked. We can all tell you how much it costs US to get fills, but the only way for you to know how much it will cost YOU is to contact your potential doctor.

You're the one who's been swinging the baseball bat through this thread. But thanks for stopping by anyway. We always look forward to a civilized discussion. Maybe you could come prepared next time.

Why can the F word get blocked but the " English" equivalent be kept on here. No one should have the right to stay on this forum after telling someone to F off!

What ev......

I could get it done at the Va Med Ctr. for virtually free if I trusted them to do a good job. But I am going to use the Private Sector instead. Im still filling out this stack of paperwork. Lets see, "Hoiw many times do you go to the bathroom.......rofl JK!! But it COULD BE there. This is comprehensive to say the least!

Sandy-USN VETERAN

What VA center do you use? I don't think the VA covers fills - at least most VA's don't. When I had my surgery 3 yrs ago, the VA didn't even do lapbands, only bypass (and I would've had to travel to Portland to get it done (about 6 hrs away). Not sure if they even do them now. But I guarrantee it'll only be done at the bigger VA hospitals. My VA doc didn't even know what a lapband was - I had to explain it to him.

I travel 6 hrs round trip to get fills at a civilian dr. Medicare covered the surgery and the first year of fills. Now they cost me $160 each. Whether it's a fill or an unfill. $600 sounds really expensive to me!

Good luck! And if you'r VA center does do them, why not go there? I would!

her book was not a waste of money to people on this thread who read it and followed her suggestions which matched our doctors instructions. being nearly 5 months post op, i have lost nearly 80 pounds. i think it has helped me very much. have you read it?

i hope if it is at goodwill, and nothing wrong with goodwill, that a person reads it and can learn from it. i know i sure did.

How can you say it's a waste of money if you haven't even had the surgery?

Jean's book a waste? Not for me, read it, followed her rules, banded 9 months, lost 68 pounds. The proof is in the pudding!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
