Anyone know of any doctors that take patients from another state? Moving to Ohio and will need a doctor

Thank you for the recommendations.. I think I will check out that one Erie since its not to far.. Some also mentioned to check around Ohio state university hospital so I guess when I'm back I will definitely find someone to meet with.

Yes I did speak with my doctor he said he didn't know anyone in Ohio but for me to look around.

Hi everyone I have a question. I had my surgery on June 4th starting weight was 264 it has been 4 months and I have only dropped to 244. Ire entry had my 3rd fill yesterday. Before I left the doctors office I needed them to take some out because I couldn't swallow Water let alone my on saliva. I actually threw up a little in the doctors office. So I had my doctor take some out and I felt better instantly. Anyways it's been 4 months little frustrated that I see all these individuals having these huge successes and I am not seeing anything. Can anyone let me know how do you know if you're starting to feel restriction? Today I had a little yogurt and practically felt it go down my stomach and come right back up.. Not sure if I should continue liquids today till I feel a little more comfortable. Be aide the two bites I did have did not feel good going down. Is this how restrictions could feel. Also a lot of people say signs of burping or hiccups are signs that let you know you're full. Well since surgery I wake up burping a d every now and then hiccups. Is this normal? Thanks guys just nee some motivation. Really have no one to talk to about this.

Thank you. I hope that I am getting close I would really like to see a return on this investment for my health. The small victories are nice with losing inches. But that number on the scale is not getting lower. Yea I think today I will definitely take your advice into maybe holding off on the food. Maybe another day. I do notice tightness in the morning too.. Once I drink coffee I am a little looser.

No as I only ate two pieces. That we're cut. My doctor did approve chicken salad. So I figured that wouldn't do much harm. Obviously that wasn't the best choice.

Hey guys glad to know I am not alone on this hunger journey. Today I had some poached eggs and they kept me full till now. Not hungry a bit. I have lost 12 pounds since June 4 th when I was banded. But I have not lost any since the first week. A little frustrating. Is anyone else on a standstill with weight loss? The first 12 pounds I lost within the first 5 days. I also started eating mushed foods earlier this week. I did try a piece of grilled chicken but only managed to eat two pieces before I was in pain. Took a couple of hours for the pain to go away. But it eventually did.

Banded on Monday June 4th 2012. Super hungry.. Lol have been following the diet but need a better substitute for protein. I am currently taking the Kellogg's special k boost drinks and they do a great job initially but I am left hungry still. also I know the gas is a part of the healing process but it's a little out of hand. Gas x chews do not work. I called my doctor today and he recommended warm prune juice and milk of magnesia. Has anyone done this? What were your results.. Ps I have been craving pizza since Monday.. Ahhh what to do lol. Thanks huys
