Hi!

Glad to see this group formed! Looks like I am only the second person to join! They say everything is BIGGER in Texas, so let's get this group going!

I will Celebrate 6 months of being Sleeved on may 30 and have lost 78 pounds! I love my sleeve.

Hi all, Vance here. I had my op on 3/8/2011 by Dr. Nicholson at Forest Park Medical Center in Dallas. This is a great doc and super facility. Nothing but praise for them. I'm doing great with 54 lbs lost so far and lots more energy. Now I'm enjoying the summer, swimming and doing a lot of yard work. Now I've got a lot of projects that I had been putting off for years that I feel like working on.

I'm surprised to see that there aren't many sleevers here from Houston. I have noticed that a lot of people in Houston are getting banded. Not for me, but good luck with that.

So how have you all been? Whats your statuses now?

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
