Out with the Band....In with the Sleeve
LisaLynelle replied to swanssl's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
swanssl, Your story sounds alot like mine! I too was banded 2 years ago and Ive only lost 30 lbs and I am so sick of throwing up and getting stuck! Fills, unfills, and just trying to find a doctor to do my fills....Sooooo, I am now considering the sleeve....I hope to have my surgery in Feb......Feb cant get here fast enough....But I have to wait for my tax refund to get the money together....Good luck with your surgery and please stay in touch and let us all know how things go for you along the way.....I will be watching to see your progress....For I hope it works for me as well!!!! Good luck and stay positive! -

I have not been on the website cause I was banded in Mexico and I dont have a access number. I go to the ladies in Arlington for all my fills. Northwest Fill Management providing affordable lap-band fills for weight loss surgery patients., Mexico was just too far to go for my fills so I did my research and found these wonderful ladies who are a wonderful source of info. They have helped me so much on this new journey I have chose. I have their personal emails and keep in contact on a weekly basis. They travel to Spokane, wa where I usually go. No other dr here would touch me since I went to Mexico so they've been a great help.

Jewels, I have the realize band and so far I love it....It has taken me 4 fills to finally feel that FULL feeling everyone keeps talking about! I was really beginning to think maybe I didnt have a FULL button! HA HA....But after 4 fills and finally being at 8cc's I now know what full means and I feel like a bandster! I can only eat about 3/4 to 1 cup of food and Im sooooo full....lost 13 lbs in 3 weeks soo WOOOOHOOOOO.....I have a 10 cc band so it took me forever to get there! FINALLY FULL, Lisa

I use, Northwest Fill Management providing affordable lap-band fills for weight loss surgery patients., they are wonderful ladies who do excellent jobs on fills and info. Without them I would of been lost since no one in this area would help me cause I was banded in Mexico! They are in Arlington wa. but travel to Spokane about every 6-8 weeks. And they arent very expensive. I have go to their ofice in Arlington too when I needed a fill and missed them in Spokane. Who is doing your surgery? Good luck and if theres anything I can help you with just drop me a line!

I am heading over to Arlington next week to get a fill and was wondering if anyone from the Spokane/Coeurdalene Area is needing a fill and wanted to share the ride.....They are doing them on Tuesday, Thursday, and Sat. let me know which day is best for you, I can go any of the days.
-
Wow, Im in shock that you are paying so much for your fills!!!! There are 2 ladies that come here from Seattle area and do fills for only $150.00....If you'd like more info let me know, I have there number and I go only to them. They come to Spokane about every 8 weeks or so....I missed them 2 weeks ago so I drove over to Seattle and got my fill on Sat. Anyways, if you'd like the info let me know....

help me narrow down mexico surgeon choice
LisaLynelle replied to djpfeils's topic in Weight Loss Surgeons & Hospitals
I was banded by Dr. Aceves and I have a LOVEHATE relationship with my band.....Some days I hate it and some days I love it! It has taken me 6 months to adjust and understand what I am suppose to be doing. But its working and has been a great learning experience! I dont regret my decision to have a band. Its just taken me a while to get a handle on it. The head hunger has been almost overwhelming at times! But, we learn as we go through this journey! Good luck! -
