Welcome to all Texas bandsters (new and old) There seems to be a lot of us. Keep up the good job. and those who are contemplating surgery, i think all of us here would say "go for it". We are all happy and losing weight. the beginning is a little rough, but only last a few days and then you're on your way. Good luck to everyone!

hi everyone,

i was banded 3/30/07 by dr spivak. getting the lapband was the best decision i ever made. it is one tool of many we need to lose weight.

i am still a work in progress trying to maintain.

enjoy the ride. it is exciting when you have the NSV's in addition to the scale victories. such as getting into a smaller size, seeing my collar bones for the first time in years (this was big for me), not shopping in lane bryant.

i lived until recently in Katy. since beeing banded i met a great guy and we are getting married in october. the best gift of the band is to get my self respect back...

anyway best of luck to all my texas sisters and brothers. there are alo of us on the site which is nice...

Also in The Woodlands. I was banded 4/1/2010 by Dr. Wilkenfeld through True Results. About 20 pounds so far, but now am fighting with a new prescription of Lyrica which causes weight gain. haven't gained but am in a snit because I haven't lost yet this week. I'd love to join a local support group outside a Dr's practice...I think peer-driven groups are best.

There is a group of bandsters here in the Woodlands, we usually meet once a month for coffee and camaraderie. I'll send you a PM with the phone # of the lady who organizes it.
