Hi I'm looking for anyone in the Space Coast area from Titusville down to Melbourne who has had LBS. If so, when and who was your WLS? I am just starting the process and would enjoy reading or possibly even chatting with you about your experiences so far?

Thanks,

Gina

My surgery was Dec 17. No issues at all post op, only lost 16 pounds so far. My first fill will be Jan. 16. Have been exercising for the first time in my life. I unfortunately got an infection in my port site, Dr thinks it is from a stitch inside working its way out. Very sore and little drainage coming from it. Was told to use peroxide on it three x a day. Looking better now. I am very discouraged with weight loss. I was one of those junk food junkies and a wine and beer drinker and have a big sweet tooth. Have done a complete 180 and can't imagine how the weight is not falling off. Hope the fill makes a difference even though I have followed diet to a T and not overdone eating at all.

Who has used Dr. Fusco in melbourne Florida?

I was very happy with Dr Fusco, banded Dec 17, 2012.

Hi,

I'm from Titusville and was banded on 12/28/12. I was banded on the West Coast but need support because I don't think my fill is working. I am not getting that full feeling like I did last month. I had my fill Feb 6th and I'm thinking I should call my surgeon. Any advice?

Just banded yesterday and in my late 20's. looking for similar age group support. I live in cocoa. I had my surgery on the other coast so not sure how to find support groups

I'm not in your age group but had my surgery done on the west coast. I'm going to have "cruise to lose" out of Pt Canaveral. If interested let me know.

I was banded with stomach plication on 12/22/11 by Dr Fusco. Very satisfied with his Lifeshape program and office personnel. :-)

Sorry; double post!

What is cruise to loose?

A cruise to lose is a special group cruise of WLS people who will join and travel on a cruise together with a couple of special guests. One of the guests is a personal trainer who lost 80 lbs herself and has kept it off. There will be food available on this cruise that may help you lose weight, what you eat however is up to you.

I was banded in St Petersburg with Dr Rehnke. I could have been banded by Dr Fusco in Melbourne but he wanted $3800.00 cash upfront and Dr Rehnke accepted my insurance without a problem. I love my surgeon and don't mind traveling to St Petersburg.
