Hello everyone,

I finally got my new site up, and I'd appreciate everyone's input! There is an "Ask the Doctor / Dietitian / Insurance Coordinator" section, forums (under "About our practice" don't ask me why).

Check it out, if you see any errors or have any good ideas just contact me through the site! It's www.TheBandDoctor.com

Mary,

You're site looks good - very informative and welcoming. You are wonderful to offer your advice/suggestions to everyone at LBT - I would definitely come to you should I relocate closer to your office!

I find myself having a question - if you see this and have any suggestions I am open to them...

My weight loss is minimal and I've tried calorie levels of between 600-1500 and I just can't seem to lose weight. I DO follow the bandster rules and eat about 1/2 of what I formerly did. I had my thyroid tested and it was right in the middle - reported normal.

I've resigned myself to staying the same but wonder if there is something else I should try. My latest unfill has allowed me to eat more solids and three squares a day - less pbing but my weight still doesn't budge.

I was prescribed raductil but have taken it infrequently although when I do take it - I have very little appetite. I am 48 and on BCP. Thanks, Mary

I used to design websites professionally, and this is a very nice job Dr. C!

Yes, excellent!

Very well organized and I LOVE all the support systems you have in place.

Thank you Dr. C - will do. mary
