    I'm back, had my plastic surgeries...

    So happy your healing well- Remember you'll even be better a whole year from now! Even tighter & skinnier. I am soooo jealous & happy for you!
  2. That depends on what type of surgery you are looking for. In my experience each Doctor tends to be good at one or two things - even though they may do many like, lipo-facelifts-TT & Boobs. It doesn't mean they are great at all of them. As far as eyes, face & TT - I have 3 Excellent Doctors here in Michigan for you. My family has used them. Plus you'll be able to recover in private at "Spa Christina's" for free :0) If its something specific let me know & I'll do a little research for you. The best place for research is to walk around my Mon's Country Club- they all have had something done at one time or another. Proof is always in the pudding, so I like to see the work in person. Let me know.

  6. Mine is the same story has yours & I want the notices :0) But I can get none . I have even tried different settings on the profile sections just to see if it would help but it didn't. I hope it changes back.

You are getting special prayers starting tonight just for you. I have a feeling deep inside, that all will be fine on the 8th!

Very smart move Alex-well done!

    3cc Band?

    nope I have never heard of it & to top it of cc ususal refers to the amount of saline NOT The size of the band. CM is typically refering to the size of the band. Looks like a mis-communication to me. I would talk with them again. Congrats on the feeling full part- its wonderful isn't it? :0)
  16. Sounds like a possible leak. Definetly time for a talk with your Doc.

    Risk of Internal Bleeding?

    In my 2 years of research I have never heard of this. Why not ask Dr.Pleatman. He is on this board and would be a good source of information & a medical opinion.

    Port/Bra

    I couldn't wear my bras(which are underwire also) for 6 weeks after surgery. My port is just above my belly button & only slightly to the right hand side. My bra sits about 4"s above it- No problems at all:0)
  20. Kathy- That so weird- I am the EXACT opposite. I just got my period & ate all day long yesterday-PLUS a major helping of coldstone icecream. I just couldn't get full to save my life for 2 full days. Protein first or not. Isn't that strange- I thought how can I not get full? Normally I am very resticted. I am feeling better today & a little more back to normal. Sheri- I would go by the scale- Are you losing 2 pounds per week about?? If so than don't go for the fill - If your not losing weight & following the rules all the time - go get a fill. Thats what I would do. Good Luck

    Does everyone take vitamins?

    There is NO MALABSORBTION (spelling?) With the band. Unlike RNY. So as long as you are eating a well rounded diet there should be no need to worry about a lack of vitamins. That being said I was told even before I was banded to always have one multi-vitamin per day. And I do. We typically DO NOT eat a well rounded diet & thus a supplement is needed.

    What would you do?

    Wow- A tuff ??. Well I would say to just say the "surgery " line as well BUT IF HE PUSHES YOU - & you cave under in pressure (like I do ) I always feel like telling the truth even when I should keep my mouth shut. Tell him like this - knowing his background like you said- tell him-"you've decided to take charge of your life & your health & are making a positive move in the right direction." If he questions it say- thank you for your concern but this is my decision & mine alone! But I highly doubt he would question you after saying it that way. Either decision you decide to take will be the right one. But I like you would feel like telling him- I am so glad I wasn't working when I had it done- I would have told my boss- & who knows if that would have been good or bad ;0)

Kelly- Can you list the chili one please. I am a horrible cook so please talk baby talk so I won't mess it up. Everyone says you can't -BUT trust me if there is a way I'll find it. I actually do have a crock pot- don't know how I got one but I have one-LOL LOL I think my X used it one or twice- he was more the cook. I appreciate any help at all.
