Looking for Texas Sleevers???



Recommended Posts

I live in Magnolia,Tx but work in Cupress,Tx. I had my sleeve on March 13, 2014. So far have lost 30.6 lbs. but now I've developed a lot of acid reflux. My throat burns no matter what I eat. This just started about 4 days ago. Going to call my dr office on Monday. I can hardly eat because it feels like I'll throw up. It's not coming from my stomach bit all seems to be in my esophagus. Has anyone experienced this?

My Dr automatically puts his patients on Pepcid AC daily so I gave not had any issues so far

Howdy! I had my LapBand done in Conroe by Dr. Collier in 2007. He has since retired and I have been picked up by Dr. Turnquest. I am awaiting approval for revision to VSG, but it looks good. I've had major complications concluding in 2 hospitalizations. I had a very successful band until I got pregnant and had to unfill. It was never the same again. I'm ready for normalcy, if that is possible. Are there any local groups in North Houston?

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
