Louisiana?s Premier Bariatric Center Changes Lives with the Popular Sleeve Gastrectomy Procedure


Covington, LA (PRWEB) June 07, 2011

The Surgical Specialists of Louisiana (SSL) at WhyWeight.com, The Total Weight Loss Solution, has become one of the busiest and most experienced clinics in the region for the gastric sleeve procedure, which results in immediate weight loss and resolution of obesity-related health conditions by removing the stomach?s hunger center and providing portion control. SSL changed over 1,000 lives through sleeve gastrectomy in the last 5 years.

Similar to the well-known gastric bypass, the gastric sleeve allows patients to start losing weight right away, which results in the improvement of co-morbidities, such as type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure and sleep apnea, within the 1st week after surgery. However, unlike the bypass, sleeve gastrectomy takes SSL only 35 minutes to perform and requires fewer incisions with no intestinal re-routing, thus greatly reducing the recovery time and complication rates. And it really works ? The Surgical Specialists have documented that their patients have maintained the weight loss of 50-70% now for 5 years.

?Surgeons love the gastric sleeve because it is a straightforward, brief procedure that can be done whether the patient had prior weight loss surgery or not, and it provides great results,? says Dr. James Redmann of the Surgical Specialists of Louisiana. ?Patients love it because it?s very easy to understand, their hunger is gone ? which is a whole new experience, and they get lasting results.?

The gastric sleeve is so effective because of its two key elements. First, during this no-nonsense procedure, the weight loss surgeon removes the left side of the stomach, which is the hunger center and accounts for about 70% of the total size. The remaining 30% of the original stomach can only hold a little bit of food. As a result, the patient eats less, feels full sooner, and there is no more hunger drive.

Deke Bellavia, the co-host of SportsTalk and the ?Countdown to Kick-Off? on WWL Radio, the New Orleans Saints Radio Network, lost 128 lbs since his gastric sleeve surgery. A former type 2 diabetic who also had high blood pressure, Deke stopped all of his medications a week after surgery. ?My choice was very simple,? Deke says. ?I needed to get my blood sugar under control, and I heard that Surgical Specialists of Louisiana is the best weight loss surgery program in the country. My 2nd anniversary is June 18th, and I can now do a lot more with my life than ever before.? Watch Deke?s sleeve gastrectomy testimonial on the SSL website.

The gastric sleeve procedure is the result of many surgical technique and technology advancements over the past 30 years that helped ensure safety, as well as consistent and successful results. Just like with any other weight loss surgery, patients must follow the doctor?s recommendations and take daily vitamins, protein and B12 supplements, because the stomach size is reduced and they are eating less.

?The key to weight loss and healthy lifestyle is nutrition, so our goal is to give patients control that allows them to make smart nutrition choices,? adds Dr. James Redmann. ?Sleeve gastrectomy accomplishes this through limiting both hunger and food portions. We believe that this weight loss surgery will become more popular in the future and might even become the most commonly performed procedure in the United States.?

Most insurance carriers now cover the gastric sleeve procedure, and more carriers are expected to provide coverage in the future. For those considering a self-pay option, The Surgical Specialists of Louisiana offer an affordable cash price, which includes a year of post-op coverage.

First Superdome Game Since Katrina is a Huge Focus for SportsWager.com Sports Betting Players on Monday

New Orleans, LA (PRWEB) September 22, 2006

SportsWager.com is putting a big focus on the Monday Night Football game between Atlanta and New Orleans on Monday Night. Many players are looking at this game as the biggest one of the sports betting week.

A year after Hurricane Katrina, the New Orleans Saints will return to the Superdome as they host the Atlanta Falcons in a battle for first place in the NFC South. The game is so big, it’ll require two stadiums. Two NFL commissioners will be there. Two internationally renowned rock bands will play in the Louisiana Superdome shortly before kickoff. And two 2-0 teams will take the field while nearly 70,000 fans go crazy.

Saints head coach Sean Payton said that Atlanta is a good team and that all the other stuff can?t be a distraction. He wanted a good week of practice and was hoping to leave the distractions behind.

More than 500 media credentials have been issued to media outlets from around the world. Because the dome is sold out for the season, there’s no place in the stands to set up an overflow press box so a couple hundred media members will have to work out of the adjacent New Orleans Arena and watch the game on TV. Former NFL commissioner Paul Tagliabue along with his successor Roger Goodell, are expected to be in attendance. U2 and Green Day will play before the game and former President George H.W. Bush is set for the coin flip.

Atlanta is a 3 point road favorite at http://www.sportswager.com with a total of 43. The Saints and Falcons are both flying high. They both come in at 2-0 and the game should be a classic. SportsWager has great betting propositions for the game in addition to the side and total. You have the chance to bet on options that include passing yards for Michael Vick and total yards for Reggie Bush. Also, don?t forget that SportsWager.com is giving bettors a one of a kind offer with their $ 10 Free Bet.

Thousands of Football Orphans Looking for Daddy This Season

Denver, CO (PRWEB) October 17, 2006

Many have heard of ?football widows? who all seem to curiously lose their husbands to the television every weekend about this time of year. Whether it?s nonstop coverage of college gameday on Saturdays, the NFL on Sundays, or Monday Night Football, these women find their husbands irretrievably glued to the set. But what about the tens of thousands of ?football orphans? who suffer the same fate?

?Quite honestly, they?re cast aside. Unfortunately, nobody seems to be talking about them,? says Keith Hudson, husband, father of three daughters, and author of ?A Letter To My Daughters.? ?As fathers, we need to remember that we are husbands and fathers first. Football, and all sports in general, should never be a higher priority in our lives. And when you add fantasy football to the mix, suddenly you?ve lost dad to the constant tracking of players and statistics that doesn?t quit after the Monday night game — it goes all week long.?

A tactic often taken by fathers torn between family and their favorite sports broadcasts is to invite their children to join them on the couch. According to Hudson, this tactic is nothing but a smokescreen.

?Attempting to include your daughters in your viewing habits by pointing out the social and historic significance of a game like the September 25 Monday Night Football game in the Louisiana Superdome — the first New Orleans Saints home game since the devastation of Hurricane Katrina — is a futile effort. In the end, after all the fanfare and news commentary, it?s still just a game,? says Hudson.

After more than 4,000 interviews with daughters and their parents, a recurring sentiment emerged — that many daughters felt their fathers knew more about their favorite teams and players, stats and all, but knew nothing about their daughters’ boyfriends, their GPAs, and even whether or not they’re sexually active. ?This is a travesty,? says Hudson.

According to Hudson, fathers could better use their free time by balancing sports with time spent with their daughters, whether it be a movie, dinner, or just taking time to sit and talk.

?And this shouldn?t be just a one time, or once in a blue moon, thing. Spending quality time with our daughters on a regular basis, really as a matter of habit, will do wonders for your relationship both now and in the future. A father?s relationship with his daughter directly influences the expectations she will have for her future when she is looking for a mate. It?s the difference between a future life of love and respect versus on of chilly, cohabitating indifference,? says Hudson.

In researching his book, ?A Letter to My Daughters,? Hudson surveyed more than 4,000 parents and teenagers. He found that the most common issues, questions and answers that surfaced ranged from sex, drugs, and dating to relationships and respect for the family.

Keith Hudson was born in Omaha, Nebraska. His family moved to Germany when he was seven years old. After living in Germany for four years, his family moved to Denver, Colorado, where he has lived ever since. Hudson is a married father of three daughters.

?A Letter To My Daughters? is available online at http://www.booksaboutlife.com. For more about MAYO Communications visit http://www.MayoCommunications.com or http://www.MayoPR.com.

Radian Audio Scores at Louisiana Superdome; Major Player in $5.5 Million Post-Katrina Remodeling

Orange, CA (PRWEB) December 6, 2006

Radian Audio Engineering, Inc. (radianaudio.com), a manufacturer of professional speaker systems and audio components installed worldwide, announced that more than 100 of its compression drivers and woofers have been installed at the Louisiana Superdome in New Orleans to replace the aging Altec-Lansing voice paging system.

Radian’s audio components were part of a $ 5.5-million remodeling and sound system upgrade at the 269,000-square foot Superdome after Katrina hit New Orleans in August of last year.

The sound system project was managed by PSX, Inc. (psx-inc.com), a Covington, LA-based supplier of AV technologies and sound systems used in outdoor and indoor entertainment, sports and concert venues.

The Superdome’s new voice-paging system uses 52 high-output Radian 835PB compression drivers and 56 2215 fifteen-inch full-range woofers to reach concert crowds of more than 20,000 and football crowds exceeding 70,000. The Superdome has 125,000,000 cubic feet of space.

PSX called on its worldwide expertise to provide clear, balanced and consistent sound coverage to all areas in the Superdome. “A voice-paging system provides more than ongoing event information. Especially at a venue the size and capacity of the Superdome, it must be able to deliver important crowd-management details in the event of an emergency, a company spokesperson explained. “Clarity of voice and full fidelity is crucial,” he said, “and the Radian components gave us a reliable, high-performance well within the allotted budget.”

Michael Palmer, Radian’s Manager of Sales & Marketing, explained that a key aspect of the installation was retrofitting the 52 compression drivers to the existing Altec-Lansing horns previously used. “We custom-machined the drivers’ aluminum billet adapter plates, completing the modification in just three days at our facility in Orange, CA. This was a crucial part of the retrofit and highlights the versatility of Radian’s in-house design and manufacturing processes.”

The Louisiana Superdome, sitting on 52 acres, is one of New Orleans’ marquee landmarks, and is home to the New Orleans Saints NFL football team, the Allstate Sugar Bowl Football Classic and the New Orleans Bowl. It is also a world-renowned venue for concerts, music festivals, shows and special events.

PSX, Inc., (psx-inc.com), headquartered in Covington, LA, provides A/V solutions for outdoor and indoor entertainment, sports and concert venues worldwide, providing customized engineered audio solutions; intelligent lighting; entertainment video; security technologies; and communications, special effects and show/control systems.

Radian Audio Engineering, Inc. (radianaudio.com), established in 1984, is a pioneer in professional speaker systems and audio components that are used internationally by sound contractors and dealers, live bands, and OEM manufacturers of top-brand audio equipment. The company’s design and manufacturing headquarters are in Orange, CA.
