I'm trying to get a thread going for all Texas banded.

I was banded in Victoria, Texas by Dr. Dean McDaniel on March 15. I'm feeling GREAT, lost 20 lbs so far and my primary care phy. said by the end of the year, i would be off all my meds. I'm going off one already.

i'd really like to keep in touch with the Texas bandsters and keep up with each others progress.:thumbdown:

Also, don't know why but I haven't been able to get on the chat line lately. Anybody know why.:thumbup:

I was banded in Houston Texas by Dr. Kenneth Hollis with True Results on 7/22/10. I live about 45 minutes south of Houston. I have lost 24 pounds including the pre op diet.

Hi I live in Richmond, TX with is 20 minutes from Houston. I was banded on 9/20/10 and have lost a total of 28 pounds including pre-op!

This has been the best thing I have done! I did want to see if they are any groups near Houston that we can meet to chat and be eachothers support system. If you can let me know I would to even start a group if needed.
