San Antonio, Tx- Mentor/buddy

I am getting my procedure done in 3 weeks on September 28th with True Results. I am a 28 year old female. I am looking for a Mentor or Buddy, or both to help be support and a friend through this time. I started my pre-op diet today.

Looking forward to chatting. :)

Hi, I'll be getting my band through True Results in S.A. too! I won't be able to get it until Jan '13. I believe Dr. Benevides will be my dr. How much longer until your surgery?

Hello there! I got my band through True Results Scottsdale, AZ on 6/26/12. Let me tell u they are wonderful! I researched this procedure for years prior and was actually going to do it thru another doctor/ facility (terrry Simpson) a couple years prior but they were no help with anything!! The insurance part I had to do all the work and the staff was just RUDE! Then I found true results what a difference Wow! Got my surgery covered in 6 months, they did all the work. The staff is Amazing! I hope u experience the same! Best of luck

Got banded yesterday and I am doing well. In pain but getting through it. Trying to figure out if I am hungry or if it is just a habbit thing. Figured it might take me a few days to get that straight. lol Overall though a good Surgery. :-)

That's awesome!! Are you taking time off from work? Who was your Dr?

i did true results in Austin August 2011. I love them. I have a 14cc band so it took me time until i felt restriction. It is hard to get over the habit/head hungry i still fight it i am at work or stressed.

Dr. Richard Benavides, and I am taking a week off of work.

He will be my Dr as well. How is his bed side manner? Is he gentle?

He was very nice, didn't get to see him much but when I did he was very nice.

That's good! How are you feeling? Are you able to eat anything yet? Do you feel any restriction?

Cathyjtr - are you using San Antonio True Results? I'm near New Braunfels as well.

Yes I drive to the location on Data point. Takes me about an hour. I was going about every 4 weeks now I have not been since July.

I got banded at TR in SA 3/7/12. Down 70lbs--halfway to goal!
