Hello!

Does anyone live in the DFW area?

Have a great day!

Wow That's Gr8 I Get Banded This Month Congrads And Continued Success

Dr. Snow did my surgery June 2007. He is a very wonderful person. He and his office staff are very supportive, friendly and helpful. He has a great sense of humor and spends time with you to discuss problems or praise your success. I work downtown FW and live far west FW. Are there any support groups west?? All that I have seen are mid cities or Dallas.

No I did it at HEB does he offer it at usmd currently?

Probably not. USMD is where I went to the seminar, so I initially thought I'd be having my procedure a couple of miles from my house. HEB is fine with me. I've made that trip monthly for the last 6 months.

One of my friends just had lapband on the 15th and she swears she saw Dr. Carter while she was in recovery at the hospital on Matlock. Her surgeon was Dr. Harris or Harrison.

Hey Becky i also live in Mckinney! Wonder if we are neighbors LOL!

I scheduled my surgery today. It will be on June 17th at Arlington Medical Center. I'm really happy that I won't have a long car drive to and from the hospital.

Hi Melissa,

Hey, have you ever noticed how many Melissas & Missys there are on this website? I will be banded by Dr. Ferrara in Fort Worth on May 12th. I can't wait!!!:biggrin:

so you live in Arlington?

so you live in Arlington?

Yes, I do. I currently live in South Arlington and I grew up in Central Arlington.

So are you getting excited..?

Holy smoke, Mark! Way to go!!!!!!!! Us former big folks have sure shown people that no matter the amount of weight we need to lose...the band works! You are doing fantastic!

So are you getting excited..?

I'm very excited! I've made calendars for my liquids and mushies. I've started a "Lapband Box" with all the things I'll need during that week after my surgery. I'm getting ahead on my graduate work, so I won't be stressed that week. Thank goodness that 2nd graders keep my mind occupied!

I did have a slight scare a couple of weeks ago. Dr. Carter's office called me at school, and I was so worried that something was wrong. They just had to move my surgery location from MCA to Surgical Center of Arlington due to contract agreements or something like that. Whew...I was okay with that. Same time, same date...different venue.

I live in North Dallas and will be banded by Dr. Marsden on June 9th in Decatur.

I'm here for you if you need ANYTHING !! Is your hubby excited? Do you have a last meal planned?

Hey I'm from Granbury Tx. Can someone show me how to put weight thing on my page

Hi Shearbear!

Some of the tickers you can click on and it will take you to tickerfactory.com (for some reason I can't with mine?) or you could just type in the address. Once you are there there is all sorts of ticker options. I used weight loss and then you pick your scale, your marker and put in data (starting weight, current weight & goal weight). You will need to copy and paste the bbcode to your signature. You will need to up date this with your weight changes as you go! I hope this helps!!
