Really Bad Doctor Visit
O.K. my Doctor is not a fan of Lap Band or Realize Band he STRONGLY recommends gastric Bypass b/c he says with the Band surgeries you cant predict weight loss and some are not successful at all. Well everyone that I know *****ally tries/ makes great effort losses. I am following a very low carb diet and he scolds me every time he sees me for the carbs I eat. I have lost 30 lbs which I feel good about. He says I have tried it my way and it did not work so I should follow his recommendations. I feel with his plan I am setting myself up for failure b/c I KNOW I CANT FOLLOW THAT DIET sounds like Adkins . My plan which I have been following is to to eat foods from all food groups in moderation's and continue to learn and eat Healthy for life.
My doctors office STAFF has been the worst. I always wait 1 hour or MORE to see doctor (on Friday while at appointment I got into an argument with the Nurse b/c she told me I have to learn to wait/that's life. After I told them I had to leave after waiting over an hour to see doctor. Staff is very rude and condescending.
This is a journey and I am doing my part with diet and exercising I try to do 5 days a week running on treadmill 30 minutes and I feel good about myself. I just wish weight would come off faster but It took me a while to put on the pounds..... So I am going to find another doctor. We philosophically disagree.

Every Doctor is different, and have their own views .. with that said .. My Doctor feels we did not have this operation to be ON A DIET.
We NEED to be CAREFUL WHAT WE EAT and HOW MUCH WE EAT - but these operations are suppose to help us live a normal life, without dieting. If we're suppose to diet, then why bother having the operation?
As for exercise, you should do it at least 3 times a week.
Good Luck on your Journey !!
