Thought I would see how many of us are from this area. When are we going to get together?

Lauri, why don't you boogey on down to Galveston on 11/13 and spend the night w/ some of us "Texas bandsters"? Leatha and Betty are coming from your neck of the woods. Love to have you!

Plano here.

Grand Prairie here!

That sounds like a blast! My mom lives in Houston-maybe I can swing it. Depends on kids and school etc. Thanks!

I'm in Denton!

Blossom, That is sooo cool! We are going to HAVE to get together! I am so excited.

I am in Frisco, Texas.

Hello Willpower! I live in Little Elm. I substitute at Frisco ISD! What an awesome school district. I am waiting on approval, as well. Back in July, I learned about the lap band and have been jumping through hoops, crossing my T's and dotting my I's every since! Dr. Cribbon's office finally got enough info. to send the request to the insurance about two weeks ago. Good luck to you! Maybe we can meet sometime.

I am in Mansfield, TX. Researching the whole surgery process, trying to figure out if it is right for me. I will be a self pay. So trying not spend an arm and a leg. IF you guys ever get together here, please let me know.

Hi! I am so glad you found us. I need to get my map out and write your name on it! This is the place to be.

Here in Mesquite

Hello KayTeeEss! Welcome! Have you had your surgery yet?

Thanks for the welcome!..Call me Kate. I had my surgery in August. I started at 302 and am down to 264. Size 26 down to size 20. I am in no rush to lose as it took 15 years to gain. Besides, I am starting to get these strange wrinkly things...not sure I am thrilled about that...Plastic surgery anyone?

Anyway, I hope we can get find a way to get together somewhere in the DFW area...

Who is your surgeon?...I used Benevides with Maese for follow-up.

PS...the surgery is a breeze..I was in and out in 3 hours.

Congratulations, Kate! Great job!

Yep! We're definitely gonna have to do a North Texas Thang!
