Topic: Atl area Plastic Surgeon Recommendations
I know there is a board, but wanted local referrals.  I had my RNY by Dr. Johnson at Emory Johns Creek.  That office referred me to Luna Plastics.  Anyone heard of them or can refer to another who perhaps has history getting RNY patients insured and more importantly has great experience with extra skin?  Panni and Arms are just getting too troublesome.

Topic: RE: Who uses Adipex and other appetite suppressants?
My doctor prescribed it and it has helped to suppress my appetite, but not enough for significant weightloss.  The reason could be that I am not consistent with it.  My heart races and it keeps me up at night.  Even with half a pill, I still feel the effects.

Topic: RE: Thinking about starting WLS group
 Thanks for messages and I will be contacting each of you if I have your number and  if I do not haved your number I have sent you my number.     I want this group to be a place for people to talk about how WLS have affected their lives in good and bad ways, learn and share ideas, do activities that we might not have done prior to surgery.  I believe that WLS people is very special.  
Please tell me what you want out of a support group.

Thanks in advance

Topic: RE: Docs in west ga?
 I used Dr. Scott, too, and he is an awesome doctor!  Like Linda, I am not sure about him taking other patients, but it would be worth checking in to!
