Drs. Rich DiCicco and Lee Grossbard performed my surgery 4/22/08. I went to 2 other seminars and met a couple other surgeons. I found Grossbard and DiCicco to be VERY... actually the most informative and experienced. DiCicco really seems to have the caring attitude and great bed side manners. - Meredith.G
What I do drink water dont eat for 30 mins then I have chike for breakfast then wait 1 hr after to drink again;and repeating drinking process of each meal,and plan lunch fish & veggies or chicken &veggies butt meal only 4oz. So , I had adjustment Jan 25th;and then I eat walk away from the meal come back too the meal but meal is only 4oz so no adding more food just because your taking break from eating,and I believe this relieves the trauma of adjustment to your new stomache and no nausa ,and no pb. I always drink 1/2 of my weight or 96 oz water.

Obesity is emerging as a health epidemic around the world. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, obesity is rapidly spreading across all regions and demographic groups. An estimated 97 million adults in the United States are overweight or obese. That figure represents more than 50% of the American adult population. Of this group, 11 million adults suffer from severe obesity.
Obesity is an excess of total body fat, which results from caloric intake that exceeds energy usage. A measurement used to assess health risks of obesity is Body Mass Index (BMI). BMI is calculated by dividing body weight (lbs.) by height in inches squared (in2) and multiplying that amount by 704.5. The metric calculation for BMI is kg/m2.
