Any Texas Gastric Sleeve Buddies?



Recommended Posts

Hello, I am Bree. I live in San Antonio Texas. I was sleeved by an awesome team of military doctors and staff at Sammc. I am in dire need of a mentor and support system. Can't wait!

I saw a few Austin area folks - we have a monthly support meeting on the 2nd Wednesday of the month at 6:30 at North Austin Medical Center (St David's) on Mopac near Braker. Classroom 2A. You don't have to have had surgery there and there's no cost or anything. Great group, usually around 30 people there. It keeps me sane and accountable.

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
