NFaith and IMWITHTHEBAND....CONGRATS! On making the decision to a new and healthier you!!:smile2:

I did not have any problem w/ the hospital staff but you MUST as questions. The nurse kept wanting to give me the blood thinner but I told her that I did not need it and to check w/ the dr first. Dr Laker then came right in to see me and told me I did not need it.

Just from my experience...Shannon has the most knowledge of the three cordinator. Weiner is more conservative about fills then Laker. I really like Laker, he takes his time and ask you questions that are important to determine how much fill you need. Good luck and PM me if you have any questions. I'll be glad to share with you.

just an informal update... i am doing great and excited for fish.. i am also noticing increased hunger and less restriction...increasing everyday...im currently eating about 1/3 to 1/2 of what i used to eat in a sitting... so im incredibly happy!! it is so weird i feel totally full and satisfied on so much less than before...its like a no brainer diet... make the appropriate food choices and win win win!! so i cant wait for my first fill november 5th...

also... im going to stick with dr. weiner for my first fill... he was my surgeon and is fabulous so far... even called me personally when i left a msg about acid reflux with the coordinator... great dr... great place to have the surgery!! but yes... make sure you are well informed before you go... on everything!! and question everything you think may be wrong...
