I am here in deep east Texas. Close to Texarkana. Sleeved 12/4/12, down 14 lbs and have already stalled a week with weight loss, but am losing inches. 23 lbs down from my 1 week preop weight of 309.

Near corpus christi here, 3 weeks post. Nice to meet everyone.

Nov, 27 here. I hope all is going well for you. I have been pretty lucky so far i think. Who was your doc? I used McDanial. Don't hesitate to message me if you want to talk.

My dr was Griffin, surgery at Bay Area. Seeming to be doing well. Struggling with water.

I'm from Bryan,Tx. I had surgery in Houston, Dr. Erik Wilson. Awesome Dr!, so glad I had the surgery!! Surgery was on Nov 19th, down 48lbs since pre-op. Its very hard to get in all the liquids., I've had an ER visit for dehydration. Felt so much better after the IV's!

Hi peteyhereicome! I'm here in C.S. Had my surgery a year ago this past Saturday by Dr. Mason. It's been a great journey so far. Just wanted to say Hi to a neighbor!

I think i am finally drinking enough water to stay well hydrated. It took some effort to get here. I was motivated by all of the comments i see here corelating good wieght loss with water intake.

I was sleeved in Houston but live in Austin . I went to the Davis Clinic. My surgeon was Garth Davis not sure if any of you ever saw Big Medicine TV show ?

Doing okay have lost 15 pounds since surgery have not had nausea or any trowing up...So good so far just do not think I am gettin enough protien yet ! On puree food?

I am about 70 miles south of Dallas and scheduled for surgery Jan. 22 in Dallas with Dr. Nick Nicholson. Great to read how well my fellow Texans are doing.

Hello, I am Bree. I live in San Antonio Texas. I was sleeved by an awesome team of military doctors and staff at Sammc. I am in dire need of a mentor and support system. Can't wait!
