Come meet me, my DH, and other Bandsters from the Dallas/Ft Worth area. Mercado Juarez in Arlington - 6:30 PM. If you need directions, just PM me. This is a FUN group and the food is great. So are the Margaritas.

Sorry I missed you guys tonight maybe next one. My first appointment is next Tuesday with Doctor Wade Barker for Lap Band at Doctors Hospital Dallas.

Sorry I missed it- I am interested in the next meeting!!

There is a dinner in Arlington - at Mercado Juarez - the third Thursday of each month. The time is 6:30. We would love to see you there. You can meet me, Cynthia Jones (a 210 pound loser), Charlie (the unofficial host), my DH Bob, and a host of others.

Where do you live? There are several other D/FW dinners throughout the month, from Burleson to Plano to Dallas, etc. I only attend the one, but I can get you info on any that might interest you.

I'm in Fort Worth, though Arlington isn't a far drive at all. I'd like to know of some of the other group meeting times, sounds like something I need. Thanks

hi my name is nikki. I just got banded on 08/18/06. I am trying to stay positive and I think people who have had the procedure can do me some good. I love to come to one of the Saturday dinners to meet all of the participants.

Sorry I missed out.. I'm always up for some good Mexican food and good company.

How many people usually attend?

Is there a meeting room or a secret password :-)

The only one I go to is the one in Arlington - third Thursday of each month (6:30 PM) at Mercado Juarez.

There IS a private room involved, but no password. Just tell them you're with the Lap Band group - or the fat people. Either way, they will point you in the right direction.

Attendance varies, but I'd say on the average, there are usually about 15-20 people there.
