Just wanted to send an update. I went to see Dr Spivak....I'm scheduled for August 29th!!!:whoo: I can't believe it. I could have done it earlier, but I want to make sure I have everything finished at the office and around the house. Not to mention a baby shower on the 25th...I just can't see eating at a baby shower with a brand new band. what kind of notes were yu wanting me to take? I didn't see that before I left for Houston today. I can fill you in on what we learned if you want.

Congrats!!

I used Spivak as well and am really happy with my band. I drive 5 hours to go see him for fills since I live north of Dallas, but I think he's worth it. I researched lots of docs before hand and I liked him the best for the distance I was willing to travel. The staff there are great and so helpful. I call when I have concerns or questions (and I use LBT a LOT).

Hugs!

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
