Barba Anyone?????????



Recommended Posts

I am in the process of pre testing for the lap band surgery with Barba in Hartford. I still have 7 lbs to lose before he can do the sugery and I can have the apt with Dr. Barba himself. I just cant seem to get these 7lbs off. Any suggestions.

Anyone using Barba. Any of you have the same problems?

My GYN doctor recommended Dr. Barba because his team is really good with getting approval for the lap-band procedure. Dr. Barba's staff was the utmost professional and Dr. Barba is very pleasant and truthful. The staff is very caring about the patient's needs and concerns. The practice now has a monthly support group and the office nutritionist Melissa was super nice and very informative. She will always call you back and even takes emails. I hope people find this helpful - Feel free to contact me at if you have any questions.

For the month of June 2008 only, the support group will be held in the Gengras Auditorium on the 1st floor of the 1000 Asylum Ave building in Hartford, CT. This support group is open for everyone.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
