Northern California Sleevers



Recommended Posts

Sorry I am new and posted in the sleeve forum... Sorry.. :(

The surgeon I was going to first said she would never suggest the sleeve and did not like even doing it.

haha. It's no problem. You are getting the sleeve now? Why wouldn't she suggest them? It is because she doesn't do them regularly?

I'm getting the lap band. She is Sacramento's top bariatric surgeon; Dr. Laura Machado. She just thinks it's not the wise choice. I dunno.

Any northern california sleevers out there. Im having surgery on january 8th in sacramento. Hoping to find a buddy or two to talk to. Good luck everyone!!!

I was sleeved by Dr. Eslami in Feb. at Methodist. They have one of the best WLS programs in Sac. Very comprehensive pre and post op care. I regularly attend his support group and would highly recommend you do the same. They meet every 1st Sat and 3rd Thurs so find a time that works for you. If you have any specific questions let me know.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
