Recommended Posts

I was wondering if anyone here has been banded through True Results in Richardson? If so, what is the normal first fill amount? I would love to compare results and stories!

While I was not banded by that True Results I was done by the one in Austin and it was great. They seem to be very knowledgeable. I believe they even use the same surgeons to perform the operation.

My band had 3cc's in it and is a 14 cc band. I just had my first fill as well and they put another 2 cc's in.

Over all I am very happy with choosing True Results

I did all my pre-op (insurance hoop jumping) at the Richardson site. Surgery at Baylor Carrollton. My first fill today in Hurst. I got 1.9 in my 10cc band. So far, it's good! I'll go back in a month for more.

Tell us your story....who did your surgery? Marsden did mine, love that man!

This is my second time writing this! The first time who knows what happened!!

I had everything done through True Results and Surgical Center of Richardson. My surgeon was Dr. Benevidas, who I have barely met so I have no opinion of him. But one of his nurses was wonderful! She called me everyday for 10 after checking on me and my pain level. That was a great bonus!

I was banded 11/23 and weighed 234 as of today I am 208! I have not started exercising yet:( next week I plan to start a routine because I will be off work for two weeks! Woot! Woot!

I would love to hear yalls exercise routine. I go for my post op appointment and first fill next Tuesday, thank goodness! My surgeon placed 3 cc's in my band during surgery but for the past week I have noticed myself wanting to eatmore. It doesn't help that it is te holidays and goodies everywhere I turn.

Keep me updated, I would love to hear your thoughts and stories!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
