Trying this 1 more time. Today I meet my new Surgeon for the first time.

I have a 3:00 apt. to meet my new surgeon, and his staff. Also I am suppose to get a slight fill. "I hope so, I'm getting hungrier more often." So it's time for a fill.

I will also find out if he wants to make himself some money by changing this 4cc band to a newer model. I'll see what he has to say. But this one has good restriction. So I am not really interested.

I am interested in seeing if his Teacher in WLS (MY OLD SURGEON) gets brought up in conversation.

Ill be back later, Shirley.

Let us know how it goes. I didn't know they even make a 4cc band...

Hope it goes well. Have to agree with Marcy, didn't know they made a band so small!

It's an older version band that is no longer used for various reasons.

Yep it's a oldie but a goodie.

He was glad to take me on as a patient. I lost 2lbs since last Thursday. So Boop oop a Doop ! I am doing just fine. I am wright on track 1 - 2lbs a week is fine by me. So I am dieting with a window between 800 - 1200 Cal. a day, and 60 - 70G of Protein a day. That is working for me.

I got a small fill So I have 2.75cc in a 4cc Band.

I feel good restriction also

Yes he was telling me what a pain in the A*s he was to work for,

Excellent Chief of Bariatrics Surgeon. But a bad Attitude if something

doesn't go his way. We laughed about that.

I go back in 4 weeks. I guess he wants to see how i'm doing as a patient. As far as weight Loss.

That turtle is slowly moving.

Any idea what these various reasons might be?

Not sure, from what I've read a lot of those fitted with the 4cc band haven't been able to find the right restriction, erosion, slips, etc.

O.K Thanks. I just want to know because mine will be 5 yrs. old this year, and it is in great shape. I hope it stays that way.
