Any Bandsters from Katy, TX?



Recommended Posts

I am also looking at Dr. Rincon. I was pretty much set on Dr. Rumbaut in Monterrey, but Dr. Rincon's deal is hard to ignore as a self pay. I am also in Austin, so Rincon is close.

I know he was associatied with the WISH Center in SA, but has recently opened his own clinic. Of all the searching I have done, I can not find anyone that says anything negative about him.

While he is certainly not as experienced or well known as Rumbaut, his background looks solid and I think he has enough lapband work under his belt to be through any learning curve.

I am a bit concerned about it being "outpatient" surgery with him. If I go with Rincon, I think I wil check in to a nice hotel on the river walk for a day or so after the surgery, just so I am close should any complications develop.

I am very interested in any other opinions about Dr. Rincon, both past and prospective patients.

Hi Redi,

I know you will think this is a stupid question, but why are you considering a doc in San Antonio when you live in Houston? Some of the best are right there in Houston! Just wondering....

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
