I live in Covington, I had surgery on Sept 17 with dr charles procter at piedmont hospital Atlanta, it was a six month process as request of the insurance, I lost 16 the two weeks prior surgery, and 23 after three weeks for a total of 39 pounds in four weeks, still 77 more to go!

I live in Conyers and work in Covington. Awesome results!

I don't because Medicare paid for mine. But if you email his office they can tell you. They did everything for me. I did not talk to my ins once they did it all! They are great and Dr Turton is too! I had very little pain, no nausea, no drain. Here is their link http://wgbariatrics.com/about-us/meet-dr-turton Best of luck too you!

Well I used Peachtree Bariatrics for my surgery. Dr. Titus Duncan to be exact and let me say this, put in ur mind fat factory. Do not expect any proactively past your first couple of visits and post surgery if you call the answering service dont expect them to call you back at all. Lastly, I had surgery back in February and they not once called me for a follow up visit.

Beauty,

That is a shame about PB! I called just to ask some questions and I thought it was strange that the rep "was not in" and would call me later. I guess I just assumed anyone could tell me about price, etc. And, it took them a full week to call me back. Ridiculous!

Smh! Well check this out. If they tell you they are out again or they are on the phone, ask for the manager and I guarantee magically they will appear... I cant tell you how many times I had to do that. It just burns me up!

Listen, I have no doubt they are overworked but dont label them advocates if they wont advocate and get your arse off of tv if you dont have the manpower needed to sustain the business. At the end of the day they billed my insurance $50k just for the surgery! (And heck, I was in the surgery center for only 6 hours!)And although I know insurance reduces the amount they payout to the organization, I know they are making money hand over fist! Smh again!

      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!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        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...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      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
