I went to a local BBQ place today and had a ham plate with beans as my side dish and it tasted great and it was all protien. Mandy

I wish there was another surgeon in his practice. He is the only one. I had a very difficult time finding a doctor because I wanted the lap band. The only surgeon who performs wls in my hometown only does rny and I didn't want that type. I had to go to Memphis, TN. Actually my first doctor was in Little Rock, AR but there was a problem with the hospital and the insurance company so I had to go to the one I have now. Since I had surgery the local surgeon has been trained in lapband (by none other than my surgeon from Memphis!) and I have been thinking of calling to see if this doctor can take me on instead of me having to put up with this guy. Thanks for jumping in. I appreciate it! Amy

Hi everyone, I am new to the boards. I posted on the California boards and they had suggested that it would be helpful to post here as well. My surgery was November 2, 2005. I really like the camaraderie that takes place here. I hope I can a well become an asset to someone else. Dawn

I get dizzy from time to time. Mostly when I bend down and stand up. But I also get a fever when I lay down. I haven't taken my temp but my face gets flushed. Anyone else? Janna
