Hi everyone. I was banded 12-12-12. Was just wondering if this group is still together. I live a little south of DALLAS. Had surg done at true results in Richardson. Go for first fill on the 10 th of jan. I'm so ready for a fill I have no restriction at all. Is anyone else going thru this???

For anyone that's interested, there's a new group meeting in Arlington. Here's the details:

The meeting is a go!

We will be meeting on Thursday, January 31 (last Thursday of the month) at 6:30pm. At Mochalux coffee & Tea Co. 1101 E. Bardin Rd, suite 101, Arlington, TX 76018. It is off Interstate 20 and S. Collins in a strip behind chicken Express.

They charge a fee of $25/hour to let us meet and to reserve seats, but that fee is waived if we purchase $30 worth of drinks/products. Hopefully you won't mind chipping in towards that amount in case we don't purchase enough.

I'm thinking this first meeting will be more of a meet and greet and we can discuss what kinds of things we are hoping to accomplish in our meetings. Also, it shouldn't last longer than an hour.

Hope to see you there!!!

Hi, is there anyone out there who lives in or near Venus? I am a low BMI bandster and am getting down and very discouraged. I am sure I am not doing what I need to be doing. I need help. I need a buddy to push me in the right direction.

Thank you,

Deborah

      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!!
