I get my fills done by him. He and his staff are very nice. I was banded outide of the US. Most doctors I talked to were not so nice and wanted to charge me a WHOLE LOT more. He treats me like one of his own!! I appreciate that about him!!

I was banded in Mexico and I was doing wonderful. And YES, I also was turned away by MANY Dr.s. I don't think thats fair that we should be turned away. I understand they don't want to be caught up in the middle of risks, and it was very hard getting past all the negative Dr.s. Dr. M did take me on. Please just take notice of your surroundings and be cautious about how clean things are. His girls were very nice to me also. Check his background with the medical board also. My only point is just be protective of yourself, you only have one body. I'm glad your doing well and i wish you the best.

Are you saying I should check Dr. Jay with the medical boards and be cautious and about how clean things are at Dr. Jay's office? or the other doctor you were talking about?

I'm sorry about the confusion!!! Ok...Dr. Jayaseelan is absolutly WONDERFUL, I have had NO problems and love him to death!!!! Dr. Jay had to get me through one AWFUL mess. Dr. Jay took take care of me when I had a SEVERE infection and he was NOT the Dr. that banded me. I walked into his office and from minute one, I felt like he had been my Dr. for years. EXTREMLY knowledgable and very straight forward and honest!!! I have been thru hell and back and I am very grateful to have found Dr. Jayaseelan!!!!! It just so happens that I was banded in Mexico and I was doing great...down 45 pounds and feeling good!!;)

I had my first fill done at Dr. Fred Maese office. :faint:I had to return a few times due to a severe infection. I will NOT be returning to Dr. Maese office. I will never be the same, my entire band has been removed. All I can say is PLEASE PLEASE be aware, ask lot's of questions, check online with the medical board, ask other people, make sure things are CLEAN and STERILE and GLOVES are used and the skin is CLEANED, ALL before anything is done. Talk to your Dr. What do they specialize in?? How were they trained and by who?? No matter who you use, ALWAYS check them out first. My Lap-Band was the best thing I had done for myself and due to no fault of mine, it is now gone, I will never be the same. The scars will be with me the rest of my life.

      I am new here today... and only two weeks out from my sleeve surgery on the 23rd. I am amazed I have kept my calories down to 467 today so far... that leaves me almost 750 left for dinner and maybe a snack. This is going to be tough for two weeks... but I have to believe I can do it!

      Hey everyone. I'm new here so I thought I should introduce myself. I am 53y/o and am scheduled for Gastric Bypass on June 25th, 2025. I'm located in San Antonio, Texas. I will be having my surgery in Tiajuana Mexico. I've wanted this for years, but I always had insurance where bariatric procedures were excluded. Finally I am able to afford to pay out of pocket.  I can't wait to get started, and I hope I'm prepared for the initial period of "hell". I know what I have signed up for, but I'm sure the good to come will out way the temporary period of discomfort and feelings of regret. I'd love to find people to talk to who have been through the same procedure or experience before. So I look forward to meeting you all. Hope you have a great week!

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        I hope your surgery on Wednesday goes well. You will be able to do all sorts of new things as you find your new normal after surgery. I don't know this from experience yet, but I am seeing a lot of positive things from people who have had it done. Best of luck!

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.
