Milton L. Owens M.D. I met my surgeon on a Thursday and my surgery in Tijuana the following Monday. His staff was so helpful and were there for me when ever I needed them. I have had to be unfilled twice due to my band becoming to tight. This last time I had to call my surgeon on a Saturday. I felt so bad. But he met me at his office in 30 minutes and took care of me. I can't say enough nice things about Dr. Owens and his team!
Getting a full tank on Friday the 11th, 2008 Well, it has been over a month I think that my band was emptied out because of a bad stuck episode. The tank will be put back up to 6-y cc's this Friday. I am a little worried because it has actually felt good to have no restriction, not hiccups, no pb's, or sliming....and I ate BREAD!! WOO HOO. I only gained a pound through all of this which I think is pretty good. I ate what I wanted and when I wanted but did notice how quickly I got full! I mean I got fuller with an empty band than I did with it all filled up!
Any hoo, I am scared for the fill. I am the WORST when it comes to taking small bites....I just can not get my head wrapped around it. I need a LB buddy that lives in my area more than you will ever no but I guess it is not in Gods plan since no one lives around me...there are some Gastric Bypass ladies but it just is not the same.....
I will update my blog a week after the fill and see where I am at. I really need to get this down since my free fills stop in December. If I was rich I would just get all of this extra fat lipo sucked from me! LOL
