I am extremely excited about the band! I recently learned about it by a friends success. She has lost 80+ lbs and glows from happiness. I had a million questions for her and found out that several of our coworkers were also banded and are being very successful. I have my Seminar with Dr. Tiffany Jessee of Tampa/Clearwater, Florida. She is the Doctor I want to have my band done with. (ALL of the people I personally know either went to her, or left their other doctor to go to her.. so I feel really good about it.

My Seminar is on Monday April 11th and I am going to be Pushing paperwork like a mad woman to get underway asap. I want my new life to begin yesterday! Reading all the forums.. I understand it will be hard, its not a cure its a tool.... a very good tool... and that every bit of trouble seems to always have an agreement that it is worth it in the end. Good Health, Feeling good about yourself, and being able to live life to its fullest again is ALWAYS worth it for me...

Im Ready!!! Lets Go!!! ........ Im pacing for monday.... sheesh! .... where did I put that time machine??wink.gif

Hello and welcome!!! Good luck on your journey!!

Thank You!!! Ditto of course!! I went to the seminar on Monday and all went very well. I even watched a fill live and am rearing to go. The Suncoast Bariatric seminar brought 2 people to answer questions from experience (band patients) and it turns out that one guy came on his own to support his employee... he too has been banded and is very successful. It was hilarious to know I also went to school with his lovely girlfriend. Such a small world! It seems the band is everywhere I look now and it seems that Although there are still the "negative nellies" out there... I feel that the success and great life changing stories still outweigh the negative. (usually the negative are patient caused, poor after care, or bad doctor... or combo) Im just going to have to do and tell.

I've been thinking about doing a youtube video blog 1-2 times a month so that when people like myself are wanting to follow someones experiences... there is one more story to find. (There are so few out there that keep up with regular videos. Usually there are before and after, which are great.... but I wish I knew more about LapLiving so I can learn from experiences and avoid mistakes)

I pray Insurance a speedy response and that everything gets moving!!! I've researched, thought long and hard, listened to other people's opinions after they thought long and hard too, and finally came to the conclusion that good and bad was always ment with love and concern.

My mind has been made ..... so GO GO GO... cause Im ready! laugh.gif

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
