    Hello, I have a question for you. I really like Dr. S. when you went to see him in his new office, did you have to pay for your fills (now that he is not part of the other office)?
  5. Hi Erica,

    I'm doing great, I'm down 45 pounds already. I'm pretty happy with my progress. I've had 4 fills already. I went in yesterday hoping to have another fill, but this new doctor i saw said he didn't want to give me one. He thught my progress was good.

     

    I'd love to get together this summer, just let me know when.

  6. Laura,

     

    How are you doing? It has been a while. I was thinking about setting up a get together this summer - maybe late June or July?

  7. Hi Erica,

    Your progress is great. I'm happy for you. I haven't done so well this months. I go in for my fourths fill and weigh in on Tuesday, March 3rd. I'm nervoius I think I'm only down like 2 pounds. Next months will be better.

     

    We should get together one day I would love that. It's nice that we all used Dr. S. I live in Burbank but I'm flexible to drive. Maybe we could meet in between.

  8. Hi Sara,

    I am very happy with Dr. Salimita. I got my surgery on November 4th 2008. So far I'm down 25 pounds or so. My surgery was great, no complicating at all. Tje doctor is very good. I did here a negative feedback too regarding the office but I think ti was blown out of proportion. I like the office and the doctor. feel free to call me if you want to talk. 949-939-4084

  9. hello, i saw on one of your posts that you used dr salamatari, i was wondering if you liked him, and how successful your surgery was =]

    i have a consult with him this tuesday and i was just trying to get some positive feedback from someone because ive only heard negaive things about topsurgeons.

     

    thanks =]

    Hi Ladies, So how is everyone doing? I was banded by Dr. Salimatari on Nov. 3 and I'm down about 22 pounds now. I'm excited.
  11. We"ll do great, don't listen to any negative people and try to surround yourself with positive support. I love my band and am excited to lose weight. I'm down 22 in 2 months.
  12. I was banded November 4th and I'm feeling great. I got my second fill today. I've lost about 20 pounds so far.

    We should all get together one day for coffee and discuss. I think it would be really nice since we used the same doc. Also if you guys are interested I'm trying to start a local support group for lap band patients. I live in Burbank. Let's discuss. BTW! I get my first fill today with the doc. Laura

    Hi I used Dr Salimitari, do you you have any questions?
  15. Hey Lisa,

    I'm glad you write. I feel like I am eating so much more then I should be. The first 2 weeks were great, wasn't eating much although wasn't losing much either. Now I feel like I can eat whatever. I usually have to stop myself. I get my first fill this Friday, I'm nervous and excited at the same time. I'm only down about 10 pounds total from the day of op. What about you?
