They are great, but they will push for the lap band. They try to scare you with you lose your stomach, you could gain back weight etc., but you can gain weight back with any WLS if you don't put in work!

I went for the surgery that yielded more instant results, less gaging and vomiting, long term it won't have me restriction from certain foods, no long term device as I am 31, and it would be in me a long time!!!, also payments for fills every month for a year...between 150-300$ depending on your insurance!

Plus I have Dr. Rilley who is personable and highly recommended.

He did my EGD today...very easy procedure to test for haital hernia, ulcers etc. Before he does my sleeve, as it is a requirement...

Join me on my blog as I track my process...

I had my EGD done yesterday ..was a very simple process...and I felt normal aftwerwards...no groggy. I finally met Dr. Hollis and I relly like him. He did find a Hiatal hernia that he will repair when he does my sleeve. I had my 3rd weigh in and NUT meeting...wasn't very impressed...it was more of checking off the boxes for my insurance. she just asked me a few questions and so forth and then i went on about my testing got my blood drawn and they are going to request my EKG from my PCP...

so far my experience with fairly good with TR. I did find out that after all this tho they will gather up all the info and then submit to my insurance and I have to wait for them to approve then I will get my surgery date. I was a lil dissapointed about that but such is the process.

Now next week is more testing withe my PCP...wish me luck

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
