Hello From Texas!

Hi everyone! I've been reading and gathering information from this site for weeks. So helpful! Just got an Email from my Doctors Ins. dept. letting me know that they have submitted my info and we will know something in two weeks or less... I can't wait to join this group of banisters!

    I was banded by Dr. Alex Esquivel in Feb. It was the best thing I did for myself. Welcome to this forum and a new life. This is great place with wonderful support.

Hey, guys! I'm in Dallas. Being banded tomorrow at 7:30 a.m. Great site, you will love it. Best of luck on your journey. Friend me on here, if you'd like. I'll give you the "skinny" on how it goes...lol

@Nanu, I wish you the best as your journey begins. You'll feel sore for a few days and then you'll rock.

If you have a lap dog, apologize now because for a few days nothing on your lap. Lol.

@texasJeff.. Dr. Patel is going to do my surgery ...(if ins. Approves) hope you saw something positive about him on tv...

It was all good. Likes Leo guy on TV.

You close in this area we have a support group meeting the 3rd Saturday of the month at Chili's in Alvin at 1:00 pm for all types of WLS pre-op or post op. Sometimes it changes to a different Saturday if a lot of people can't attend, but you can contact me if you are interested. (About 10 women average).

Cool! I'm interested! Another girl told me about the one they hold at the True Results office once a month as well! Once I find out my surgery date and/or get surgery I'll let you know if I can make the next one! Don't wanna make any promises then wind up with surgery that day! Lol.
