That's great for you. I've only met with him once and he seems very nice. He told me the popularity of the lap-band has been declining. I also have a friend that is having hers removed. I'm so excited to have my surgery done and over with. If it could do it tomorrow I would. But I decided to wait till the new year so I won't waste my deductible. He did also say I would probably have to have my gallbladder out either before or after the sleeve. Well good luck to you.. Keep posting on your progress

Thank you same to you ! Im ready to get the show on the road because I had lost almost 200 lbs with the band and since ive had it out Ive put almost 30 lbs on and I want to go down not up! How much would you like to lose and do you live in springfield?

That is not too far from Pleasant Hill. I actually went to Dr. Alvarez in Piedras Negras, MX for my surgery, I was self pay. Have ins. but they do not cover WLS. Best thing I have ever done for myself. We have sleever group meetings (a small group of us), you should try to come sometime.

Never heard of Lawrence County myself. Pleasant Hill is very close to Lee's Summit or Blue Springs, about 35 miles SE of Kansas City, MO

What Dr are you seeing? I'm with Dr woods at cox south.

I am seeing Dr. Edwards with Mercy/St. John's. It's nice to find people close the area! Have you been to any support groups? Mercy has one every 2nd Monday of the month (wasn't sure if Cox had one also).
