    Howdy! I had my LapBand done in Conroe by Dr. Collier in 2007. He has since retired and I have been picked up by Dr. Turnquest. I am awaiting approval for revision to VSG, but it looks good. I've had

OMG - I don't know what I'm thinking, not paying attention I guess. You're in NE Texas, not NW!!! We lived in Henderson for 20 yrs before we left the Lone Star State....I bet you know where that is.....well, maybe not, it's a little town, not far from Tyler, Longview....just a hop, skip and a jump from Kilgore! We are hoping to sell soon, we've been 'on the market' for almost 11 months. People are not clamoring to move to central Wisconsin. Go figure! LoL Our fingers and toes are crossed!!! Thanks for the encouragement. I am sure I prayed for patience at some point when the girls were young, and NOW I'm being taught and tested!!! :rolleyes: I hope you've had a nice day......take care, it was great hearing from you!!!! Keep in touch if you think of it and have time!

I do know where Henderson is, although not sure if we've been there we go to Tyler and Longview all the time. Hope your house sells soon. I too learned my lessons about praying for patience. I will pray God get you a buyer soon and a good price. get home as soon as you can.

Today is my 2 month surgurversary. . Ive not only lost 50lbs but stopped smoking as well. :)

Hi Jovigrl62!! My dad lives in Longview and my in-laws live right outside of Tyler. Small world! We just changed realtors....or will be this week. The contract with the other realtor expired at midnight this past Friday. We'd been listed with them for a yr!!! It is time to try something new, fresh...shake it up a little. We are hopeful. This lady is a certified stager too, so she tells us what to do, where to put things, what to put away. She had us paint the kitchen a neutral color. Our fingers are crossed - it would be nice to move before fall!!! Thanks.....we appreciate all prayers!.

That's awesome keep up the good work.

I'm in San Antonio. I'm getting sleeved on June 28th with Dr. Cavazos. I would really like to meet others who have been with him. I am very anxious to learn as much as I can and get myself mentally prepared.

No. I had my surgery at a downtown hospital because of the revision specialist I used. It is too far for me to drive downtown on a weekday to their support groups. If you know of any in the area, let me know!

Did you ever get a support group going? I plan to have my sleeve done on July 22nd. I live in N Spring but will be going to school in Tomball come July.

I would like to join the support group and I live in Tomball, TX off Spring Cypress near 249. Could we just meet at a restaurant the first time and discuss locations?

I live near Katy. I live in Cypress. I go to Katy all the time to visit my grandchildren. Are you willing to be a buddy? I just had my surgery on June 22nd and am progressing every day. I noticed you are 9 months out! Wow! That is impressive. I know it will be a different me in nine months. I can't wait.
