Hi--I live in Weatherford, which is about 15 minutes west of Ft. Worth. I was banded July 17th, 2003, by Dr. Adam Smith of Ft. Worth.

Yes, Melissa - I live east of Dallas and work in Downtown. My date is not set up yet but I am hoping it will be soon. It would be nice to make our own support group.

I live in the Dallas area. I tried Dr. Hamn but he was booked solid. I was banded by Dr Jayaseelan.

I live in Dallas and I was also banded by Dr. Jay!!:(

Oh I just LOVE him! My friend and I were banded on the same day and we plan to attend the next support group. I go in for my first fill June 1, 2004.

Maybe I will see some of you one day!

We can become Band Buddies!!

If you go to the support group.... you'll be sure to find me and my friend Marla...we are the LOUD ones!! :D My friend Marla is so embarrassing...:mad: Gotta Love her!

Good Luck to all!!!!!

I KNEW I would spell his name wrong...:mad:

Well... that's me for you....

Dr. Jay is so wonderful....he also took out my gall bladder 2 weeks after the lapband surgery. I don't know whether I should :D or :think

But he has always been so nice and is very caring and sincere.

I know you will feel comfortable.

Tell him Michelle says hello... He will also know me as Tweedle Dee

and Tweedle Dum (tweedle Dum is my friend who also got banded with me....it's not the other way around I swear)

Michelle~:straight :(

I think lunch is a good idea. I have not been to any of the support group meetings yet, but I do plan to attend the next one. Like Michelle I was banded along with a friend and I think it has helped to have someone to talk to who really knows where I'm coming from. I hope to see all of you there. My first name is Tonya by the way.

Should we eat or sip on some broth... cuz I don't want you little eaters because you just got your band filled, looking at me because I eat now... :paranoid . And let's plan this before my fill.. I think Dr. J moved it to May 17 ... so lets get together soon! :( .

So do we have any planners in this groupie of ours????:straight

I think we should do it soon too. Where is a central location so that we can all meet? I'm in Duncanville but work in Rockwall so I can do anything on the East side or south side of Dallas. When is the Dr. J's next meeting?

Dr. J's next support group is Monday May 3 at 7pm. It is in building A in the cafeteria I think.... let me get back to you on that one.... I haven't been to one yet but just got a invite to it.

Maybe we can meet up there and set up our own little thing there! :mad:

Hope to see you all there!!!! ::::::::::hugs::::::::::::

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!
