How to Schedule a Fill Appointment with Dr. Kuri

When you became a patient of Dr. Kuri, you are considered a patient for life! One of the special rewards of Dr. Kuri's practice is to keep in touch with his patients and share in their success after surgery. In an effort to relieve some of the burden of cost involved in his patients returning back to see him, he offers his patients free fills for his services for life. This also allows the patient to ask questions and be reevaluated if necessary. When returning to Mexico for your Lap Band Adjustments (fills) these tips will help you set your appointment and plan your trip.

What is a Lap-Band Adjustment (Fill) and How is it Done?

Eating Mindfully After Weight Loss Surgery

While the disappearance of hunger is almost instantaneous after you start eating, the arrival of pleasant fullness takes some time. The less you eat during the time that it takes the stomach to notify your brain that it is full, the less you will overeat. The solution is obvious: slow down

Weight Loss Survival Skills – Nurture A Desire to Get Healthy

What You Need to Lose Weight Despite the seemingly endless information out there, losing weight still seems like a mysterious process. We know it's fundamentally about burning more calories than we eat, and most of us have the physical tools we need to make it happen: getting in our workouts and watching our diets. Weight loss, though, is about much more than that.

Weight Loss Survival Skills – Prepare for Slip-Ups

Most of us will slip up from time to time and those slips can lead to gaining weight. Most of us will be thrown off track by vacations, holidays, business travel, illnesses and life changes. It will happen. People often get frustrated when, just when they get into a solid routine, something happens to throw them off, but that's what life is all about. Sometimes just knowing it will happen can help you relax and deal with it. Some ways you can prepare yourself:

Weight Loss Survival Skills – Realize There’s No Quick Fix

Most people know (at least intellectually) that weight loss is a slow process. Due to all of the infomercials and questionable information out there, though, many of us have a secret belief that if we could just find that one diet/exercise/pill, it really would be quick and easy. The truth is you have to exercise and eat well most days of the week to really get where you want to go.

Weight Loss Survival Skills – Create Your Own Motivation

Making plans to exercise is the easy part. Following through takes a different set of skills, and it starts with realizing that you have to create your own motivation. We sometimes wait until we feel like exercising, but how much does anyone feel like exercising at 5:30 a.m.? The key is to find something, anything, that gets you moving.

Weight Loss Survival Skills – Make it Easy to Exercise and Eat Healthy

Losing weight is all about making healthy choices and part of that is making it easier to make those healthy choices. If you schedule a workout in the morning and force yourself to run around trying to pack your gym bag at the last minute, that isn't making exercise easy, is it? And if you promise to eat healthy but realize all you have to eat is a bag of Doritos and a pint of ice cream, how healthy will your next meal be?
