I've seen Penni's posts regarding how cute Dr. Billy is and I must say I agree!!! I am getting surgery done by him on 8/31. I'm nervous but I think he is really good and being cute does not hurt either!!!!!! So soon I shall to have the pleasure of being stuck by Dr. Billy, I'll let you know how he is!!! Hopefully as good as Penni says!

Hi,

I will be at Community Memorial Hospital, across the street from his office. Since I'm self pay they have a package rate I'm doing. The upside is I get free fills for life.

I had my port revision at the outpatient clinic of that hospital. Was treated very well. Very attentive and was very professional. Dr. Billy on top of being good looking he is very professional and proficient. And his bedside manner is so caring and supportive.

Where do you live in relation to Ventura? I am in Van Nuys, CA. I have my next appt with Dr. Billy on Sept 23.

Keep us posted.

I live in Montrose, it's north of Glendale against the Foothills. I'm so glad to have found another bandster in my area!! I am gone next week at a conference, I get back and a couple of days later I get my band. I feel like someone has hit fast forward!!! I am so glad it is finally here! I have had to jump through some hoops but am so glad I did. Dr. Billy is great as his support staff. I'll post again when I'm on the other side.

Debbie: Yes Dr. BIlly and his staff are soooooooooooo supportive. He encourages us to make sure we come back every 4 to 6 weeks and no more than that as he sees the best results with those visits. He really takes the time to explain things and gives you reasons why things are the way they are.

Please do keep us posted on how you are doing. If you want my home number then PM me and I will send it to you.

      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?

      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

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
