DFW support group



Recommended Posts

Would like to get a group going in the Arlington area. There's a coffees shop off of 20 and Collins. Was thinking we could meet once a month and talk about things that are important to us and our success. Let me know if you're interested. Would really like to get this going.

Sure. I'm hoping its safe to assume it should be an evening meeting. So how about last Thursday of the month at 6:30? Would that work for you all. We can start this month. So that gives us approx. two weeks til the first meeting? I can check with that coffee shop on s. Collins and see if that's a good time to meet.

Hey RN

I googled coffee shops on Collins and didn't find one. There's are some on Matlock though, did you mean one of those?

It's called mochalux. It sits on the corner of bardin and south Collins. So it may have a bardin address. It's right off 20 in a little strip that's behind a chicken express I think. I called today. They said it Shldnt be a problem to meet there, but if its more than 10ppl there may be a fee. The manager wasn't there to tell me the details for sure. I will call back tomorrow.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
