Anyone know of a support group in the temple area? Just starting my banding journey and hope to be banded in September. Would also like to find a workout buddy.

I haven't heard of anything in Waco, as far as I know there aren't any lap band surgeons around here either. I got my band in Houston 2 weeks ago! When do you get yours?

Hopefully in September. I go for my consult in August and will set my date then. I'm getting it done at true results in Austin. How has your experience been so far?

Mine has been awesome! I did it through True Results Houston and they were really nice and helpful.

I am also in Temple. I was banded on July 9 through True Results Austin. I am going to try to go to Scott and White's support group. I'm not sure if they will let me in but I need the help.

I don't know about s&w either. All I have found are over eaters anonymous in temple and belton. How was your experience with true results in Austin? Are you happy with the band so far?

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
