It's June, so how's everyone feeling now?? I'm 75 lbs down.

Got my date! February 10th. Anyone else with the same date??

Good luck to you!! You got this!! I am also in Houston. I had my sleeve done by Dr. Felix Spiegel. Some don't like him. But I do. He's straight & to the point & doesn't let you make excuses!

He's my doctor too!

Had my surgery Tuesday. Omg the gas pains. They were so horrible for me. I literally was like what did I just do to myself. But little by little I'm getting through it. This was my first ever surgery so I'm sure that played apart in my thinking. But doing so much better today.(Friday) feeling more energized, concentrating on getting more liquids in. Also I was scheduled for just a one night stay but my Dr kept me an extra day.

February 10th! ;; Houston Tx. ;; Day 1 of liquid diet down... this sucks. Lol but I know it will be well worth it!!

So I'm switching to my BFs insurance in November & will fully be able to use it in January. He had the lapband with Dr. Felix Spiegel last year & everything was great. A couple of other people we know also went to him for WLS. Anyway, my question about him is, does he have you lose weight before VSG surgery? Is there a goal you have to hit?? I was going to do the lapband as well but with True Results (beginning of this year) But they required me to loose about 50lbs before I could. Just wondering if he might do the same?? I can say he didn't have my BF lose anything but I weight about 50lbs more then him. :/ Anyhow, I've decided on VSG as I see how lapband is going for my BF.
