Patients banded by another Dr. transferring care
Sarahbethlane replied to DrHekier's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
Dr. Luttrell is still in practice and has moved his office to Jacksonville, Ar. He is also seeing patients in Hope and Little Rock (but not in the same building he was in). His phone # is still the same as it was in Little Rock (501-978-4343). In fact I just saw him last week. -
im doing okay i guess. I am down 56lbs. I am thinking about getting another fill to see if that will help me start to lose weight again. I just started a new workout and hoping that helps too.

How are things coming along? i'm at a stand still. And i'm so frustrated, dr says to go back on liquids for a week.

How do you make a 4 oz meal last 30 mins!...lol

If your band is filled right it will take you 30 mins to eat 4oz. It can take me 30mins to eat 2 chicken nuggets. When I first got banded I could eat whatever I wanted. Then i got my first fill (3.4cc), I could still eat a lot of food at one time. now after my second fill (im up to 4.6cc) I can barely eat 3 bites and I am stuffed full, like I have eaten a Lg pizza. If you can eat more than 4oz you might want to see about getting a fill. -
I had another fill yesterday and he put in 1.2 cc. now i have a total on 4.6 cc . Im now having to drink A LOT slower.

I got my first fill this morning and it was interesting. He put in 3.4 cc in my 10 cc band. I can really feel the restriction now. I feel like i did the first day after my surgery.

I got my first fill this morning. My Doc put in 3.4cc in my 10cc band and I can definitely feel the restriction. I had my shake after my fill and it took me longer to drink it than it did before i got my fill. I'm now back to tiny sips. He also suggested drinking my broth a spoon full at a time.

Im having a good ole chocolate shake for lunch. I had one for breakjfast around 9 this morning and I will probably have my 2nd sometime after 1 this afternoon. Then tonight my little sister is Graduating from Pharmacy school and we are throwing her a party and cooking her dinner. So I am holding off on any solid foods till then. -

We meet out there after work (around 5:30) and we have been walking 5-7 miles. we texted each other everyday to see if someone will be out there. I am always willing to be out there if someone wants to go with me. (my husband doesn't like for me to go by myself) I have started a 12 week program to start running. All my sisters run and I always fill left out. Today is my one month Banniversary! ! ! WOO HOO! ! ! Congrats Tracy on being in a size 8 ! I bought me a "Goal Dress" in a size XL. I wanted to be able to wear it for my birthday at the end of june. well when I got home and tried it on it fit! I am going to buy a size Lg to be my "Goal Dress" for my beach vacation in September.
