The stuff that had me stopped up for a month...should I start taking the mover now?

Oh I did joke with Dr. B that some of us ladies were contemplating getting tattoos where our ports are to make life easier for him. He laughed and asked if we would be bringing the tatooist to radiology...so we can find it in the first place LOL. Did I mention he is cute?

Yes Melissa you have mentioned that before. :) I would love to get a tattoo there we should try it? lol Did you spill the Beans that I think he is cute? Huh Huh???? OH dear I am going to be embarrassed now when I see him. lol Oh well. :heh:

Dianne, you saw a nakie man when you had the lap band done the first time? And he was a grey hairy wrinkly kind of dude? Heh, I dont know if you want that to happen twice but I can relate to wanting it to be a younger man. But you know what they say about lightening doesnt strike twice in the same spot. :) You never know what you may end up seeing. :)

Nah didn't spill the Beans....I didn't want to get all giggly. He already thinks me silly because I hop up on the table and my legs start swinging just like a little kid.

Diane I didn't see any naked men when I had surgery...and I was doing laps around the hall. Though one of the morning nurses was kinda cute. Not sure I'd want to wrisk seeing an old naked man lol.....maybe it was the drugs, were your drugs good?

You know ladies, now that you mention it; I've given Dr. Kuwada and staff this web address too. I don't know if they've ever come here or not?

I've seen a pic of Dr. B; he is cute. I've never seen a pic of Dr. V.

After both of my fills, Dr. Bauman told me 3 days liquids and 3 days mushy food.

You all are cracking me up with naked old man stuff. Let me just say that I am very happy that he was holding on to the doorway and not something else too. That would be a very bad visual that I don't even want to think about.:)

Mrs Sabe try this link here's dr v -

http://www.obesityhelp.com/morbidobesity/bariatric+surgeon+profile+David+C+Voellinger+kll.html

Not sure he makes me giggly. My coworker said dr b reminded her of a surfer dude. I am unsure because I am focused on the numbers and the skills, not hte looks.

Mrs Sabe how does dr K look? I would never say which of my dr's makes me giddy. Hee.... It's not the spine center dr. Yes i'm 32 trapped in an old ladies body.

Jennifer,

Dr. K's picture is on the previous page of this thread. He's not a hottie, but not hard on the eyes either; kind of the same way I'd describe Dr. V from the picture on that link.

Okay, call me wierd, but I think Dr V is very cute! He's frat boy preppie. Oh yeah! I haven't seen Dr B. or Dr K. yet...wait, I've seen a pic of Dr B but it's been a loooong time. ???

You guys crack me up! Here's the link to Dr Kuri. He's older and fatherly, kind and handsome. www.beliteweight.com

Okay, his website changed, he has a pic of Drs. Morales and Dr. Espinosa with him. Kuri is the larger man on the left. If you "click here to continue" a close-up comes up. He looks heavy-set in the pics but when I met him in person, his waist is very small, his chest is big, he looks like he gets lots of good exercise. Anyhow, MY doctor is the CUTEST!!! LOL

Welcome back. I too didn't have the best restriction until I was were you are now. 2.6 I finally feel that this is a great fill for me. Not just b/c I have some restriction- not alot mind you BUT b/c I am finally long enough out(8mnths) to understand how I should be using my band. I am a slow learner that way & finally I am getting to the point where I stop myself & than wait awhile before eating again. Before i would eat too fast/sometimes PB & than I could eat anything ususally after that.

It hit me about 7 mnths out where I started to understand the feeling I got w/the band or didn't get. I learned how to fill it slowly w/good foods & wait...just wait. I hope your fill does the same for you & now that your already exercising your on your way! Good for you!!

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

    • buildabetteranna

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
