I was banded Feb 2, 2012 by Dr. Wellborn in Little Rock. I have only lost 20 lbs so far. I really wanted to have lost at least 30-40 lbs by now. I have a 10cc band with 6.2cc so far after 6 fills. I go back the end of June for another fill. I hope this one gets me to the "green zone".

I was banded by Dr. Luttrell on May 30 in the new outpatient surgery center in Russellville. Today is June 10th and I am down 9 pounds. I am excited about this new journey.

That great to hear. I did not not there was available in Russellville. I live in Russellville, but I travel to Little Rock to get my fills. Where will you go to get your fills? Are fills available in Russellville? This would save me some time and travel money.

Dr. Luttrell is now coming to a new satellite clinic here in Russellville. It is on Wednesdays. I don't know which Wednesday per month it is but I do know that he will be here this Wednesday June 13. It is behind Millard Henry Clinic in the Pope County Imaging building. I was really excited to be able to do it in Russellville also. I am tired of driving to Little Rock to go to the doctor.

Banded Feb 20 in Little Rock by Dr Baker. I'm down 32 so far and I'm at 4.0 in a 10 band after three fills. Great to see people from Arkansas around.

I was also banded by Dr. Luttrell on the 30th, in Russellville. Nice to see someone on here that also used Dr. Luttrell. Hope everything continues to go well for you.

I'm from Arkansas, but I chose to go to Mexico and have it done. It was worth it!

I also had my surgery in Arkansas. I was banded April 30, 2012 by Dr. Mark Gibbs. I've lost 55 lbs so far. Please do your research on all of these surgeons because I have heard that one of them has many malpractice suits against him. Good luck.

      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.
