I used Dr. Sanchez in Monterey. Very good doctor, has performed over 4,000 lap bands. The hospital was also great! Cash cost about 8900. You can finance.

I live in Southern Calif. Original surgeon was Dr. Lopez in Mexico then have aftercare with Dr. Billy in Ventura, CA. Both are good surgeons. Just make sure you have aftercare set up prior to going to Mexico.

Hi, OkieJudy, you might want to start a new thread under introductions and share what you'd like w/us...like how much weight you'd like to use, any ?? about your dr., when you plan on getting your band,etc. More people will notice it and respond to you. Best of luck!

I'm scheduled for Dr. Sanchez in 2 days and I'm so ready to get this over...i've started my blog and plan on offering what I can...frankly speaking there's no much outstanding info out there I don't know what I could possibly offer in the way of sharing information.

Good luck on your band. Do you live around Carrollton? Our weight loss goals are about the same. I need to lose 84 lbs.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
