Hey Michelle, I'm in DFW too. I've been banded awhile but only since April have I been getting fills & trying to do this right. I'm still not perfect but im not going to give up. You are doing fantastic!!! Feel free to message me if you want. I could use someone to buddy with. A little more accountability is probably a good thing for me lol. Have you checked out the area on the boards for DFW area? Lots of nice people in our area post in there too. Good luck & congrats on the great job you're doing!

I'm in Garland my Dr is in Colleyville and his groups are too, I would love to find or get a group started in the Garland/ Mesquite/ Rowlette area. I know once I get banded I will need a friendly ear. My family is very supportive but they are thin so they try but just don't get it. Peace-out

I work in Irving ( Valley Ranch) : )

I just moved here from CA to Irving about 3 months ago. I too am looking for someone. I dont have any friends or support here. Since the start of the move I've gained back 30 lbs.. I could really use some support!
