Yes, I'm from San Antonio and had my sleeve surgery done on 3/2/11 with BMI of Texas (Dr. Seger and Dr. Duperier) over at NE Baptist Hospital. They were phenomenal and I had a very positive experience. I am going in for my follow up visit in a few days. Best of luck to you! TR

Dr. Cavazos here - June 10 2010. Just follow his instructions. And come to support group. Sometimes only me or me and one other sleever there. It gets lonely. I've been wondering if any other sleeve folks interested in asking them to get us together as our own group once in a while.

Are you having it at foundation hospital? Good luck. Forgot to answer your questions. Yes I did the two week preop diet and lost 19 pounds. You're in good hands. Did fine and doing fine. Have lost 125 pounds so far. Still a lot to go.

Hi, I'm new to this too!! and my surgery is scheduled for March 21st too!! Unfortunately I live 1000's of miles away in Australia (Perth), It would have been so awesome to have met somebody on here having surgery on the same day and Hospital etc... but I hope to see your future posts to see how you are going, at least we will know what each other is going through!!

I will have some comfort in the fact that whatever I am going through you are too.. Mind you, our timezone is before yours so technically I will be having my surgery first! eek! :o I wish you the best of luck and a super-speedy recovery :)

Hi again! I didn't have to do any pre surgery diet for Dr. Cavazos. . just follow his advice and do what they tell you and you'll do great. . . in the first 2 weeks i lost just over 20 lbs and in 7 weeks i lost 53lbs. . . all together 150 lbs in the first year. . . now i've gained a bit, but at least its not back to 350 lbs !!! Can you imagine! Thanks on the confidence vote! The bit of advice i do have for you is after the surgery, DONT just stay in the bed, get up no matter what pain level your at. . . walk and walk and walk. . . and of course sip sip sip your Water and popsicle they give you. . . (by the way, the Water will taste awful so use the crystal lite they leave) Oh are you at Foundations hospital or NE Baptist? Good luck and your going to do fabulous. . . only a few more days!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
