Hello all - just a thought - and a lot of experience with groups meeting up in Houston - maybe we could alternate a meet up, every other week or even every week, and change venues so that everyone get a chance to travel? Overall we have a huge area, but the more you break it down you are going to see less attendees. If we have a large group and rotate, the logistics of the meetings could be handled by a person(s) closer to that area.

Just a thought - and if anyone would like to meetup in NW Houston let me know.

Hi all, I'm going to be sleeved on Tuesday in Denver, but my husband just got a job in Houston and we will be relocating there by October 1. Would love to meet other people and also need to find a doc for post op care.

I live in the Heights area, but would be willing to drive.

I am 63 years old and eat very nutritious food. However, I am about 60 pounds overweight and have recently been given blood pressure meds. Should I consider bariatric surgery? If so, which?

I would be willing to organize. I am a therapist near Willowbrook mall. I have some space. PM me evenings that work best for you. Let's see what we can get started.

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      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!!
