I have some info in the Drs that will be used by TLC Edge in Dallas.

I was sent some bios from one of their staff.

If anyone would like this please email me at shanmorton@gmail.com. It's a word document and it's fairly large.

I am going to use them b/c 1) insurance denied me and 2) they have a special going on right now until the end of Feb. I am researching the drs myself on the web.

There is a lunch in Plano on a Saturday,

A diiner in Dallas,

A dinner in Arlington

Any of those work for you?

Please again, accept my apology. only want the best for you!

Cynthia,

I called Hope on Friday to schedule my last "free" fill before my 6 month bandiversary but never got a call back. Is there a number that I can call Monday morning to make that appointment? Also want to schedule my 6 month check....is that with the nutritionist, doc, nurse??? Not sure what to do from this point on....

Thanks for any guidance....

Stacey

Stacey,

Yes! Call 972-792-2799 and Tracy or Laura will set you up! The 6 month check would be with the nutritionist. By the way, you are doing fantastic! Keep it up!

Cynthia,

When are Saturday groups held? I live in Waco and currently work night shifts so weekday meetings are out for me. Saturdays would be great because then I could make a day of it being that I would have to drive about 1 1/2 - 2 hours to get there.

Thanks,

Stephanie

Stephanie,

The lunches are on the first Saturday of the month (every month) at 2pm at Aparicios in Plano, Tx. You can google it, but it is on 18th Street off of I75. Please come!

Cynthia

Thanks Cynthia. I was afraid I would never be able to attend. Saturdays work out great for me.

Stephanie,

Good! See you next month!

Hope you can come!

Finally, I am 2 days away from my first fill. I was just wondering if anyone ate anything before. My appt is at 11 so I didn't know if I should just plan on doing liquids that whole day.

Thanks for the advice!

Hi Shannon,

As I recall, they ask that you not eat anything the day of your fill, then go back to a liquid diet for 24-48 hours after your fill. Hope this is a good fill for you! I go for my 4th fill Thursday. This will be my last free fill, so I hope it's that "sweet spot" everyone talks about. My loss has been VERY slow, even though I can't eat much and try to eat the right things. Good luck to you!

Does that include protein shakes as well?

Hi all~

I'm here to vent today....so forgive me while I blow off steam. I couldn't get in for my last free fill w/ TLC edge b/c we were going out of town and they only do them in Plano on Thursday/Friday I believe. So I had called Dr. Kim's office at North Hills, got it all squared away to just pay my $30 co-pay and they would bill my insurance for an office visit. Supposed to go to Dr. Kim's office for this fill TOMORROW and get a call this morning that UHC won't pay for my fill......NO S**T Sherlock...I am a self-pay...UHC denied me REMEMBER??? The office screwed up and now UHC knows I've had this surgery and will not pay whatsoever. Dr Kim's office says that I will have to pay what they charge their cash patients....$200 w/ fluro or $100 w/o......Going from a planned $30 co-pay to $100 or $200 is a big deal to me. I'm royally ticked off right now! Basically, I'm going to have to call TLC and try to schedule my fills again w/ George at their rate of $80 for fills....which I think is still too high. I'd be happy to pay $50 for the fill and 5 minutes that it actually takes.......I'm so mad right now that I think this computer is about to overheat from my fingertips!
