My name is Ronnie, I usually post on the DS board. Someone referred me to this board to ask questions about Dr. Anthone. I have a consultation with him on April 7. I know that Dr. Anthone does his surgery a little different than the way Dr. Hess did it. I know that the stomach is smaller and that the cc is a little longer. I'm concerned about weight regain years down the road. Can you give me your experience on this? I also wonder if, with a smaller stomach, about how much you can eat at 6 months, and 1 year or around those times. How long is it that 2 to 3 bites of food actually fill you up? When can you eat a normal sized meal? If you can just tell me what you could eat at how far out...that kind of thing, I would appreciate it. Weight regain really concerns me. Thank you, Ronnie

Hi! Does Dr. Anthone have a website? If not, how did you get in contact with him for a consult? I just found out that one of the few places that doe the DS in Chicago may consider me too much of a light weight (HA!!!!) to perform the DS on me. So I'm starting to gather info on nearby docs who might work on me. Thanks much and good luck w/ your appointment.
