Where's my fellow Latina/o/x sleevers at?



Recommended Posts

Coming to you live from San Antonio, TX.

Just saying hey because I know how it is with a big Mexican fam that like to eat big around the holidays. It's in our culture!

Tamales, pastel de rosca, tacos galore, ooo elote.

Will we ever be able to have èlote again? This is a hot topic for me

Six days post op and would kill for some tacos de trompo.

I am a dser and hispanic boy do i know about them holidays just went through my first it was tuff but i did it. Eventually you will be able to have some of the foods back you may have to tweek them to make them better but everything in moderation. Also it depends on your sleeve and what you can tolerate some folks on here are saying that there taste buds changed or that their sleeves do not tolerate some of the foods they loved.

Mexicana de corazón here! My surgery is scheduled 1/30/17 in Dallas and I have been on my liquid diet a week and a half. I'm with you on the taco cravings! I work across the street from a Mexican restaurant and when I go to my car after work, I smell fried tortillas, chips, and gorditas ????????????

Started making healthier Mex food for the family so they are ready when I finish my surgery! Shrimp cocktail tonight!!

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
