Hi All!! I am constantly looking for new friends on here that are going to be new sleevers in the DFW area so I thought I would see how this forum worked! Soooo... Here's the plan =) I would like to see if we can get a "support" group going on here so we can follow each other and be able to keep in touch on and off the board (unless you would only like to be contacted VSG board, just let us know!) I would like to maybe even get together as a group for lunch/dinner or whatever! I think that having a close knit "sleever family" (lol) would be so great to have =) Reply if interested and let's see what we can put together?!?

Here is a little info about me!!

My name is Toni (girl lol)

Married for 24 years (love him <3 )

Have a 21 year old daughter who gave me a beautiful 17 month old grandson Logan

I live in Oak Point Texas on 5 acres, LOVE the country although I am definitely not a country girl lol

I manage several Physical Therapy clinics in Plano, Frisco and McKinney which allows me to work from home #blessed!

5'4" and 229lbs =(

41 years young!

Due to an exclusion in my Aetna policy (grrr!) I will be having surgery in Juarez Mexico with Dr Rodriguez at the Star Medica Hospital on June 29th!!!! so excited!

Some of my goals are:

1) sky dive!

2) zip line

3) hiking in North Carolina mountains!

4) Run with my grandson =)

Look foward to meeting you all!!!

Ok I totally understand, just wasn't sure if maybe I missed it..

Take care!!

No email yet. I haven't been home almost all day and actually still am not. My sister and brother in law are out and I'm at their place with my niece and nephew. I will try and get it out soon. I promise.

Hello - would love to be part of a DFW group - I live in Princeton Texas - 9 miles east of McKinney. I work in Frisco for Pepsico. I was going to get the lapband - but after doing my homework and visits with my doc we decided the sleeve would be the better choice for me. I have been using True Results in Richardson for my 6 months diet visit, EKG, psych eval and bloodwork all done - however, when I decided to change from lapband I have asked their office to change me to sleeve and since my last visit is on Aug 1 - I've asked them to change it to their sister location in Hurst as the surgeon (John Mardsen) is still affiliated with True Results but also does the sleeve surgery. So far, I can't get the imcompetent morons at the richardson TR facility to return my calls - getting really irritated as I don't want ANY more delays. I have already checked with my insurance and they cover sleeve as well and there are NO additional testing and such to go through. Will call every day till they resolve this..what a pain to be so close and being held up by morons.

sorry had to vent

I am 50, single with 2 kids - Natasha 24 and son Joshua 22. Two wonderful grandkids from my daughter.

trying to find someone is the DFW area who has also used True Results....did a search - nothing.

can you add me to the list?

If I missed anyone who previously requested to be part of the group, I am sorry. Respond here and I will get you the email. Also, if anyone else in the metroplex wants to join our group, we welcome it. Just semd me a private message with your first name, email address and cell phone number.

I'm looking forward to meeting everyone!

I sent it again. I have your email address correct and didn't get a rejection notice the first time so I'm not sure why you didn't get it. Let me know if you got the second one I just sent.

Thanks to those who responded to my email. Some of you didn't comment on some my questions so I will assume you dont have an opinion on those unless I receive another email.

So far, Breakfast is in the lead. I'll let you know later what wins.

I hope everyone has a great day.

I will be tallying our votes tomorrow evening to see what the consensus is. As soon as I know I'll email the group.

On another note....are any of yall drinking the chocolate premier Protein shakes? Since surgery, they are too sweet for me. I have a bunch I'd like to give to one or more of y'all at our get together. Message me if you are interested in them.

I have bought a bag of vanilla but would love to try a ready made shake. Thanks

The votes are in and counted and I just sent an e-mail out to everyone. However, I'm not sure it went out. Can one of y'all check your e-mail and post here and let me know if you got it or not? Thanks!

No email for me
