Texas Support??? Banded 6-12-12

I want a budd : ( I have a co worker with the gastric bypass but its just not the same. I also know a younger girl with the band but she isn't even following the rules and is totally immature! I am 330 lbs 29 years old with 2 kids and 2 step kids. Im married with a wonderful husband but he also is clueless and eats me out of house and home. I need someone or more to share my journey with.

    Hi! I'm Jessica, 25 married and have a 1 yr old! I'm from Houston! I went to dr Hollis at true results. I'm 6 months post op and I'll be honest I am struggling a little bit. I have lost about 40 lbs.

This was my first surgery EVER! And it was a breeze!!!! It's like a quick nap! My only complaint w the operation would be the nurse that helped me wake up and get dressed post op. she was very rough and very rude. I had never been put under so I was very out of it! Other than that everything was great!!! Good luck! The best is yet to come!

Yeah I feel so much better I have lost 30 lbs so far I love being able to get full off less food I ate off of a plate of food meatloaf and steamed veggies mushies I'm still eating on it has lasted 3 meals I'm tired of it now I finally threw it away. Not being able to drink while you eat is the hardest thing for me. As soon as my port sight stops hurting I'm going to start my exercise. Food luck to all of the new bandees. I get my first fill on July the 20th I'm exited.

I live in Austin & have found great success with MFP. Keeps me honest! If anyone wants to add me as a friend feel free: auntielle

I hope I can write something like this after my surgery next week!

What was your pre-op diet like?

Thank you! In sure I will be up all night nervous and excited.

I am in between Houston and Galveston, like Cheri (hi!!! Sorry I missed you and lunch! ).

I've been banded one year now and at a plateau after being over filled. Surgery at True Results Houston with Dr Reilly.

Feel free to email me kittyforet@yahoo.com as I don't get on LBT as much as I'd like. :)

I am a yankee transplant as well and love it here! I only miss the snow and color changes in the fall.

I am 34, live in the Humble/Atascocita area and was banded June 14th. I could totally use a buddy ;o)

DFW area- Arlington, actually. Banded 5/1/12. I really need an exercise buddy, lol!
