Good Morning! How about DFW Sleevers? :) I live in Euless, just west of DFW Airport! I am so happy to finally find a place to post! I saw many forums but not a place to post! I had my sleeve back in Sept, 2012. I lost 50 lbs fairly quickly. However, I am now able to eat anything, in small portions, and it agrees with me. Maybe that is NOT a good thing?! :( I can't eat much at once BUT I eat too often...an a lot during the night...just like my old habits that caused me to be overweight in the first place! :( Is anyone else experiencing this? I need help!!! I do not want this to have all been in vain! :( Tnx to all! :)

I'm out in Allen...insurance being submitted tomorrow, so can't really help you through experience, but I do know that eventually you will be able to eat "almost" anything. The key is to eat your Protein first, it will keep you satisfied longer. Keep at it and work hard and I'm sure you will see great results!

You're in Allen?!! You are right next door. I was at the Kroger on McDermott and Alma just yesterday. I'm in NE Plano. If you aren't attending a support group, there's several of us in THIS area that are attending two or three! It's fun and it's fun to make friends there! I went to a new one last week, Presbyterian on West Parker - I'm not sure if it's Plano, Frisco but it was a really good group! Good luck - it won't be long now!!!

I'm in north Garland near Firewheel, and work near Midway & Plano Pkwy. I was sleeved on 3/14/13. I've hit a stall and am looking for a group that works within my schedule.

We moved to NE Plano about ten months ago. I attend four area support groups. They're all different and all good. Everyone's welcome. If you're interested, send me a message with your email address and I'll forward you my 'list' with the information about each of them. Location, times, addresses, etc.

I'm in McKinney and would like to know about area support groups. I travel a lot for work, but I would like to attend some when I can. Thanks!

      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'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        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!
