Just Moved To Irving Tx Looking For Friends And Support

I just moved here to Irving, Texas about 4 months or so ago from CA. I left all of my friends and the little family I had to bring my family here and to try to give them a better life and better oppertunities. Since May I've gained back 35 lbs slowly, and I'm so discouraged :( I don't have any friends here and my husband doesn't really give me the emotional support I need. Is there anyone in the area? I really would like to get back on track and meet some new friends here in my new home.

    Would anyone like to formalize this and maybe meet for coffee? I live in Arlington and work in downtown Dallas. From the forums there looks like there was a DFW group but no one has answered my request of whether or not it was still active. Any thoughts or comments??
