Boulder and Denver



Recommended Posts

hey Coloradans!

I'm in Boulder and would love some "in person" meetings (lunch, a hike, shopping, whatevah!) with other band-folk. I can drive to other areas (Fort Collins, Greeley, Denver) to help make this wish come true. Post here or email me at BandedMay03@aol.com.

Enthusiastically yours,

Annette

Hi there! I was just wondering if you know of any fill doctors in or around Denver. I'm desperate to find one there because I live in North Dakota, and that's the closest that I'd probably find one. If you know any, will you let me know? Thanks bunches!

hi Amber Rose,

That's a good question and I don't know a perfect answer for you. I once asked my doctor's office (Dr. Johnell in Greeley) if he did fills for patients of other surgeons. I was told yes, they do and they charge only $100. I thought that was fantastic and I posted that to the Colorado Bandsters list. Then someone called his office and said he had changed his policy because of liability :D Since then, I've heard people say that Dr. Snyder in Thornton/Westminster will soon start doing fills and that Dr. Brown in Canon City does fills.

Post your question to the Colorado Bandsters and see if anyone else has updated info!

Go to Yahoo.com, click on "groups" then search for the ColoradoBandsters group and subscribe.

Good luck!

Hi , Annette,

My name is Teresa. I am from Gering, NE about 2 1/2 hours from Greeley. I would like to have a " In Person" meeting with you. I will be in Greeley either on the 6th or 13th of Sept. Drop me an Email and we can get to know each other. My addy is msbrownielocks@yahoo.com

Amberose,

As you seen from above I am from NE and a lot closer to you than COLO. Here is some info on my doctor. I don't know how much he charges for a fill for people from out of town but I heard it was dirt cheap! Our fills are free. We pay just for the office visit. ($52)

Dr. Holloway

Thank you Teresa! I'm getting desperate here to find a fill doctor. I was hoping that I could find one in or around Denver because I have a cousin who lives there, and I wanted to use the trip to visit her and to get a fill....ya know, kill two birds with one stone. But if I can't find one in Denver, I'll definately give doctor Holloway a call. Thanks again!

Annette in Boulder, thank you for responding, and yes, I did join ColoradoBandsters, so hopefully somebody will know a doctor I can get a fill from. It sucks when doctors decide to not give fills to patients who didn't get the surgery by them. What about us who went to Mexico to get it done!?! I really don't want to fly back to Mexico every time I need a fill. But hopefuly I can find a doctor who will take me. Thanks again!

      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.
