I called another surgeon's office today to see about getting some aftercare for hubby and me. They want a $500 each to join their "program" and $1,000 each if they have to touch us surgically.

I've come to the conclusion that the weight loss surgery gig is all about the $$. The profit from WLS is unbelievable. These surgeons are making a killing. I work for a doctor's office and I've told him we need to start doing fills.

So if the fees hold true we still can't afford aftercare. I'm almost to the point I want this damn thing out of me. With no one helping me with aftercare the future is a scary thing. :paranoid

I'm psychic I tell you, psychic!

So glad to see your name again......you disappeared I thought. Enjoy your experience and frankness.....I know you deeply care about WLS!!

Yep, I do care about people and their WLS issues. When people finally find a tool that is workable they deserve every opportunity in the world to make it work.

I'm rarely gone more than 2-3 days at a time, I volunteer in Nogales, Mexico quite a bit.

Thank you *very* much for the kind words!
