Hi, I am from Clayton nc and I went to Dr Peter Henderson, he works at Rex Hospital also and will held surgery there. Have you hear from him? I was searching about lapband for a while but did not have luck for referrals. This Dr. seems to know what he is doing but I woudl like referrals from him. I went to seminar and Phycologist appt. My Dietittician appt will be next week and I am also planning to attend a weight loss forum at Rex. I was very confused about what surgery to get, finally I decided lapband because it is the only surgery my husband is agreed with for being less risky. Please keep me posted about your success? have you lose weight since the date of your surgery? Are you hungry? My problem is I eat too much and I hungry all the time, I am not eating too much sweets or Pasta I just like to eat.......

I hope you can keep in touch, I really need support in this, it is scary but I am so excited I can't wait to change my life and feel normal again.

Good Morning

I am having mine done at Duke Raleigh, they have a group of surgeons and I am very happy with them. I went to a dr in cary and I felt like I was at a used car lot they were only concerned with how the insurance was going to pay them. Just remember who ever you choose you must be happy with not just the surgon but the whole staff. My Dr. said to look at this as a marriage you must love the staff cause they will be supporting you thru this. I also liked Raleigh Center for weight loss, but they are not on my insurance yet. If you have any more questions just let me know I am more than happy to help ttny007@aol.com

      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.
