Hi Everybody,

I am new to posting on this site, although I have been lurking here for quite a long time. I am trying to have the surgery as soon as possible. I will be a self-pay person because my insurance has disallowed ANY type of weight loss surgery for any reason! I would love to know if anyone has used Dr. Adam Naaman in Houston. What did you think of him? Any suggestions or advice would be greatly appreciated.Thanks!

Hi Jen. I just wanted to say welcome from a fellow Texan. I had my surgery last November and I'm thrilled with the results. This board has been a wonderful place for information and support. I'm glad you are here. Best of luck!

I am also a fellow Texan, but I have not heard of this Dr. I used Dr. Spivak and loved him. My surgery was done at Herman Hospital and I was treated like I was the only patient there that day. It was great. Surgery was done at about 10:00 in the morning and my husband and I drove up in the driveway at 5:30 that afternoon. And I live exactly one hour from Houston. Recovery was easy, but I had 2 Csections to compare this to, so it was really easy for me. I hope recovery will be as easy for you. Had mine on Wednesday, went Walmart shopping on Friday, grocery shopping on Saturday and went back to work on Monday. They barely new I was gone from work and most of the people had no idea I even had the surgery until the first 50# came off and people got curious.

Hi Jenn,

I'm also from Texas. I have not had surgery and am looking for a good surgeon. I live in the Texas panhandle, so Houston is a long way from me. Anyone have any suggestions?

Hello, I am from Longview Texas and I found a Dr. Querry in marshall. I am not sure what part of Texas you are in, but we are in East Texas. I also know she has a program thru CapitalOne for people who need to self-pay. I hope this information helps you.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      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.
