Hey id just like to say, that Yes his name is Dr.Cudjoe, Dr.Cudjoe and Dr.Smith, they both do the surgeries together. I had the Lap-Band done by them on March 13th. Im doing good so far. They are both wonderful doctors and i highly recommend them. They really know what they are doing. Dr.Smith is also the chief of staff at the hospital in alma. I did have a complication from surgery, and i am only the 2nd person out of 400 that they have done to have a complication. I had a or have a blood clot in my lung. Im doing ok with it. They are taking good care of me. I suggest you go to a seminar that Dr.Cudjoe has. Good luck in your Banding Journey. Best Wishes.

Im glad you're doing better. just listen to your Doc. and you'll be fine. WOW what a weightloss. I'll bet its a wonderful feeling to know you're on your way. I found another Dr. Bloomfield Hills. See the thing with me is I only have a BMI of 33. Keep in touch and let me know how you are doing.

Thank you so much for the info. I really dont know if they do lower BMI patience. If you hear anything let me know because I am still checking it all out. Again thanks!

Talk to ya later!

      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.
