  11. Hello guys. I am a 38 year old gay male living in Dallas Texas. I was banded on may 10,2013. At surgery my weight was 435lbs. As of this morning (August 5) I am 59.8 lbs down and counting. Feeling great, but have a long way to go to hit my goals.
  12. Hello ladies. I have actually made a friend on here but always room for more! I am a gay man 38 yo. I was banded may 10 2013. True results Richardson. I live in north east Dallas (white rock lake area) always down for chat, text, emails, or even hanging out dinner and movies or even going out.
  13. I am searching for friends in the Dallas area (I am in NE Dallas) I am 38 year old male. Post op 5/10/13. I would like to be a mentor as well as find a mentor my self.
  14. Thanks! Your day is coming quickly... How exciting.
  15. Hi, my name is Khris. I just got banded on 5/10. Still on liquids... Ugh. Lol. I am 37 yo gay male looking for friends in the banded community. Feel free to drop me an email. Khriswidener@yahoo.com.
  16. I am a cash pay as well. The process has been rough, but not true results fault. I had to go through a cardiologist to get clearance... It was a nightmare. Now I am waiting for scheduling... Just nervous
  17. Yikes... I have no advice as I am pre op at this point. I am in Dallas and going through true results as well. The Richardson location. I am worried
  18. Hi, my name is Khris. I am approved to be banded, now waiting for pre op instructions and scheduling. I live in Dallas, near white rock lake (north east). I would love to join your support group as well. Please add me to your email list. Khriswidener@hotmail.com.
  19. I am waiting to be scheduled myself. I have done everything except the pre op diet. I am 37 years old and 435lbs. I know first hand the physical restraints. I have told several people, and I get mixed emotions, but truly, it doesn't matter what the skinny people say... Lol. They do not know the pain. Tell, don't tell, either way you should do this for you despite what everyone else thinks.
  20. I live near white rock lake in Dallas. I would live to be added to the group. Khriswidener@hotmail.com. I have been cleared for the band and about to start pre op diet and scheduling.
  21. Fantastic info! Thank you so much. I am trying to get it done before summer hits. I live in Dallas tx. It gets a million degrees here, and I don't want the uncomfort of heat and surgery...

  23. Good for you! Keep it up! I am full of emotions about it, but absolutely going through with it. I am waiting to hear from them Monday. (It's Saturday) the scheduling and pre op diet is the next step. Yikes.
