:sleep Thanks for all the suggestions. Now the rest is up to me. Joan

I went to TJ Mexico and got my band. I did real well, lost 50lbs in a month. Then because of nerve damage and joint problems, I was unable to work for almost 2years and was not able to afford to go for fills. I gained back the 50 and another 50. I am finally getting back on my feet ( no pun intended) and I am ready to lose this weight. i di find someone in Cincinnati, OH, but that is an 8 hour drive. I would like to find some one closer to Memphis if possible. Any suggestions? Prices? Thanks, Joan

I forgot to say how great you look in the pic. i can hardly wait. My grandson asked me the other day if I remembered when I went to Mexico. I told him yes. He looked me right in the eye and told me " They lied to you Grandma, you're still fat" I almost busted a gut laughing. He was soooo serious, like he was telling me something that , even though it might be hard to hear, I really should be aware of. Out of the mouth of grandkids.

I called myself looking on the internet, but the closest I found ( and called) was a bariatric surgeon in Ohio. There was one in Nashville, but when I was able to afford the fill, he was no longer doing Mexican patients. Paducah would be great. Do you have the info? Thanks so much for the post.

Hi, I have a problem I have not seen before and really need some support. I went to TJ Mexico last June ( 2005) and was banded. I lost 50 pounds really fast. I lost my job soon after and have not had the money to get a fill. I just as quickly gained back the 50lbs +. I am really disgusted with myself. i have finally gotten a new job, but it pays a lot less than my old one. I am trying to find a fill doctor in the Memphis, TN that I can afford. I could really use some advice and support. Thanks Joan:help:
