Hi Lindy,

I am from H-Town and I'm getting banded through True Results by Dr. Reilly. I'm current doing my six month supervised diet and I'm looking forward to being banded. There are a lot of people here from Houston so you should not have a problem with the questions you have. Welcome to LBT and goodluck on your journey.

Hi Lindygal. I am just starting the process. Tomorrow I go to my 2nd seminar and it is at MH's NewStart in The Woodlands. It looks like a fantastic program, not to mention convenient location.

Best of luck to you!

Welcome! I am from Houston and i went thru the process and with amazing success with Dr. Jason Balette in the woodlands. I cant say enough good things about him or his staff. I call it "cheers" bc everyone knows your name. Dr. Balette is a very caring doctor- and sticks by your side thru the whole process encouraging you- yet giving tough love when needed.

Good Luck with your Journey.

I'm going to True Results and have my surgery scheduled on 10/27 with Dr. Reilly. He is great and is very straight forward with you about how it works and how YOU have to work with your band. True Results has been wonderful and has taken care of my insurance approval, they just told me where to be and when to be there and they did the rest! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND you check them out. Good luck to you and you can add me as well. B)

      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!!
