Houston-SETX Sleevers?!

[EMSJen 6]

I went to dr. Garcia in mexico... demonstrates our awesome health care system here in the US.. I live litterally behind north cypress hospital and am a paramedic, yet I don't even have the option of getting health insurance so everything has been out of poket. I am not sure about a meet up group but I'd definately be interested if people are looking to start one. Keep me posted! Denn, who is your surgeon? I went to Tijuana, it was definately an awesome experience!!! Pm me your email if u want to join a mexico sleevers group on fb

EMSJen- what was your total out of pocket to go to Mexico?

[EMSJen 6]

the sx was 4700 but i had to pay 500 extra because of a surgery for GERD i had 15 yrs ago that he had to undo.. so $5200 + airfare. EVERYTHING else was included. 2 nights in a decent hospital with a great staff, and 3 nights at the marriot.

Hi,

I had my VS on April 4, 2013 and I can now say "I love my sleeve!"

Every day is wonderful and then again not. Right now it’s a day by day process. I'm still trying to find out what works for me as far as scheduling my meals and Snacks. I have found, if I drink something in the AM before I eat Breakfast. It throws everything out of whack. I eat breakfast and have my Protein Drink later in the morning. I'm still not eating that much but I do get my Protein in, fluids intake daily and my Vitamins. This is the most important thing to do for me. I have not really started to exercise. It's on my list of things to do tomorrow. I have lost 60 lbs. My mother is 86 and I hope I will be around at least that long.If I can do this you can too I had my VS in Sugarland. SW of Houston

Does anyone know of any meet-ups or support groups who get together in Spring/Conroe area?

[Iniysa 157]

The only meetups I know of in our area are the free onces hosted by the hospitals. I go to the one at Houston NW which is at 45/1960. They meet once a month.
