Drove 2.5 Hours and FillUSA called to cancel



Recommended Posts

lap dancer,

Reading your post about signs made me feel better. My surgeon, Dr. Mejias, called 7 days before my surgery and said pay upfront or no surgery. Now, mind you, I had been in the process for 8 months. I went in to see him for my pre-opt visit and was told to pay the part insurance did not pay or no surgery. I walked out because I felt his policy was unfair. Maybe it was a sign.

I just wanted to chime in and say that I had my second fill with Darlene Zebley of Fill Centers USA on Saturday, and she is awesome. Her son and daughter assist (daughter is the receptionist and son works the fluoroscope) and they really take the time to put you at ease and let you know that they care. Darlene does a great job with the stick and fill, and even though I came away with not enough on my first fill, I'm doing pretty good with the second (though I'm pretty sure I need another). She really looks for a balance, so you don't go away overfilled.

I can't tell you how thrilled I am to know I have someone competent and close-by to take care of my fills for me. So, so thrilled.

(Also, her son is really hot, probably late 20's or early 30's, any ladies on the market for cute one?)

I also had my second fill in Roswell with darlene this past Saturday (Nov 17th). It was a good experience, and will save a lot of money and time as compared to trips back to Mexico. I am thankful to have the option within driving distance from home. She and the office staff were all very nice, and the procedure went just fine.

Oh, I made a point of letting her son know I wasn't there because he is "hot" as previously posted. :)

(They were aware of the post.)

Vex, I see you were there the same day I was. That was my third fill. All my experiences have been great. I just wish they are closer. It's worth the drive though to put me at ease.

I didn't even realize they were all related until my last visit. I don't know how I missed that they all look alike. Her son is a cutie and they are all so sweet. I feel so comfortable as long as they keep doing fills in Roswell, I will keep coming.

Hi,

I have also gone through fillcenterusa for my fills (I am 2 years out). I have not had a fill in Duluth (I live in Griffin, Ga-by the way my sister lives in Dalton). If you get to Duluth and use the fluro machine, will you email me and let me know how it goes?

Thanks,

Bette

      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

      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... :(
