Are there any fellow bandsters in the north metroplex area interested in starting a support group? I was banded this past March. Please post if you're interested!!

I was experiencing the same issues. I read to drink some warm liquids to loosen up the band in the morning and before meals or before I swollow meds. It really works!!! I just drink several sips of hot tea or hot Water in a pinch.

Hey there!
I live and work in the Frisco area. Not banded yet, but my husband was 2yrs ago. I'm hoping I will get my band the last week of July at the latest!

Hi Everyone! I went shopping today and was able to fit into XL tops and size 14 pants...although I had to bump up a size for jeans to a 16...but the best thing is I did not have to go to the plus size section. It was so awesome and I couldn't believe it was my butt in the pants I tried on...lol...I am 7 weeks post op and I have had one fill. I am still feeling restriction but not as much as before. I have been exercising on the treadmill 4 to 5 times a week. I am looking forward to my next fill and maybe instead of buying new clothes I will be heading to the consignment store.
