I've been traveling and super busy so I haven't been on the forum much. Funny thing is that I actually lost a little weight while on vacation!

I will message my email address rather than post it on the forums.

Looking forward to getting together!

Hi JLOR,

I am also in McKinney. Maybe we are neighbors!

I used Dr. Cribbins in Plano. He doesn't advertise, to my knowledge, but I have been extremely happy. I was sleeved in December.

I think his office is very well run, and I have had no issues at all. Considering that he does not advertise, I wouldn't have known of him if not for the referral from our family doctor of many years.

Are you seeing Dr. Garza as well for supervised weight loss? She and her office staff are wonderful, IMO.

Presby Plano was a great experience - I had my breast reduction there (outpatient) a few years ago and then in December my VSG with Dr. Cribbins. They were so nice to my husband, making sure he had a place to sleep with clean sheets, pillows, and he was well fed.

If I can help in any way, please just say the word!

Thanks for the referrals! I am going to see two doctors today, and I will add Dr Cribbins in as well. So...when are we all meeting for brunch/lunch/dinner? If your in McKinney and live close to me, I would love a workout buddy! I exercise early in the morning before work if anyone is interested. So far I'm just walking with a little bit of jogging thrown in. But I'm at 5 days a week for an hour.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
