Hi , if you are in Toronto , call the Surgical Weight Loss Centre. They train other doctors how to do the fills. May be they know someone in your area.

Good luck to you ,

Bob

I was banded in Des Moines, Iowa by Dr. Eibes. Has anyone on here heard of him. I think his staff is helpful but his nutritionist is a snot. I feel like I cannot ask her any questions.

Wish the poll wasn't closed.

I was banded by Dr. Gonzales of TJ, Mexico. He & his team are tops. I am going to him for my fills. Great aftercare.

Banded in NY at North Shore Manhasset - surgeon Dr Gadaletta. Great doctor, he listens to you, and his office is operated efficiently as it relates to appointments. He even does his own fills.:clap2:

I was banded by Dr. Clay Wellborn in Little Rock, Arkansas. Thought maybe I would see another Arkansas patient.

      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.
