Yes, I found a bariatric doc in the Myrtle Beach, SC area that would do my fills. Dr. Balder of Advanced Surgical Associates in Conway, SC (about a half an hour from Myrtle Beach) has been doing my fills. It has been a good experience. Good luck!

I had lap-band surgery about four weeks ago. I'm back to eating fairly normally again with some exceptions. I was wondering if it's OK for me to start taking Actonel (for thinning of the bones) again? Does anyone take Actonel? If so, how soon did you resume taking it after your surgery? I'm a little nervous about it because Actonel is kind of hard on the stomach. Thank you!

That is wonderful! Congratulations! What's your secret?

That's wonderful! Keep up the good work!

I live in Myrtle Beach, SC. I'll be having surgery in Mexico on Apr. 22. Does anyone know of any doctors that will do fills and follow-up care in the Myrtle Beach area, hopefully within an hour or two? There's a Fills USA in NC but it's about four hours away from where I live. Thank you for any suggestions you can make!

I will be having surgery on Apr 22 in Mexico. Does anyone have experience with getting a loan for surgery in Mexico? What kind of interest rates are being charged? Was it difficult to get the loan? What financing company did you go with? Thank you!

Do the lenders mind if you're having the surgery done in Mexico?

I am scheduled for surgery with Dr. Rodriguez in Juarez on Apr. 22. I saw your post that he was your surgeon. How did it go? Were you happy with the experience?

Just wondering how these people actually managed to weigh less than their goal weight. That seems like a major accomplishment to me. I want to find out how they did it. Do you have any good advice for me? I'm scheduled for sugery on Apr 22.

You are below your goal weight. That's awesome! I love to see that! There's hope for me, too. To what do you attribute your amazing success in losing the weight? Thank you!

I am allergic to most artificial sweeteners. Are there any protein drinks that don't contain artificial sweeteners? Thank you!
