Hello fellow Texans!
I'm from El Paso. I had my VSG October 2016, and have recently hit my goal. Good luck to all and best wishes for a happier, healthier new life!


Hello I was sleeved 6/29/17 and live in Arlington TX
I'd loved to hear about your journey. Need some support but not able to find much...

I'm in Richmond. I'm having VGS and my surgery date is 8/10. My doctor is Dr. T Jayakumar and I'm having surgery at Hermann-Mermorial City.

For those that have had surgery at MHMC, how was it? How was the staff?

I am having my surgery there on August 1 with Dr. Primomo. So far, all the staff I have encountered for my endoscopy and my pre-op were wonderful! I am hoping the same for the surgery. Others I know who had their surgery there said everyone was very kind.

In Corpus...so glad I did this. I don't regret this one bit. Started my journey in Jan, had my surgery in May. It was the pits having to wait, but it's good practice with eating, sipping, etc.
Answering your question to ThickGirl5683, I'm one month post now. I drink my liquids just fine. The sipping stopped about 2 weeks post. Thankfully! Still can't chug, but you can drink good. It is hard to cram the liquids and trying to get your food in for the day. It can be done though...and it gets easier every day.
Congrats on your journey hon. Be blessed!!
