I am glad you did well and hope to keep in touch with all of Dr. Houston's DS patients.  I am scheduled for the 24th!  When I had my consult on 7/24, he said that he had done 12 DS surgeries to date.  He implied he would probably have a cc of 100 for me.  So much to think about!

Do you mean August 24 is your date? 

Research the cc and bougie sizes. I uncovered a lot of interesting data.  He will work with you to make a smart choice.

Shelle,
not sure if you remember me, but we had our pre-op nutrition class together...I had the sleeve....

I'm glad to know you are doing well.  I thought aout you last week because I remembered your surgery was scheduled then.

I am 3 weeks and 1 day post-op from my sleeve and I feel great!  As of this morning, I have lost 33 pounds!!!

I agree that Dr. H and the Centennial staff are top notch!

Hey Angela. Are you the lady with the cute little girl?  I don't see a pic in your profile, so it's hard to remember.   I am glad you're doing ok.   33 pounds in 3 weeks gosh.  You rock that sleeve girl!

Yes, that's me...my daughter, Katie, was with me.  I don't have a picture on my profile page because, honestly, I don't have any pictures of me that are any good - lol....

Part of my 33 pounds was the 2 day liquid pre-op diet, but, hey, it counts!

Glad to hear that you are doing well!
