Canadagirl33; Who was your doctor in Bellingham. Was he good. Someone said Dr Woodhead in ladner is not doing anyone but his surgery patience. Thanks Vanman -
Marivan; I hate to be to simplistic but where is doctor through all of this. That's his or his staffs job to increase your odds of doing well. They should have a help line. Vanman

Hi; I live in Vancouver and fills are hard or impossible to find. The doctors seem to want to punish you for going elsewhere. I visit Calgary quite often to visit my kids so the name of your fill doctor would be great. Thanks Vanman -
hi canucks; I'm being banded 23rd july. heard that there is a dr woodhead in ladner or a chinese dr in surrey (can't remember name) that may or may not do fills from other surgeons. There is a dr in victoria as well who is receptive to filling other surgeons patience vanmag

Have some questions **Newbie**
Vinnieboomba replied to 1day at a time's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Hi there everyone; I have a few questions I hope someone can answer. It seems that the weight losses I have seen are quite slow after the first few months I expected more. Also the diet and guidelines given for post op seem so strict If I could follow that diet I wouldn't need the band to start. I don't understand this i'm all for eating well but i've proven dieting fails for me...where is the benefit of the band. -
Hi All; I'm in for July 23rd and born in July so I'm a lucky 7 as well. Good luck and best wishes to a new life.
