There is a dinner in Arlington - at Mercado Juarez - the third Thursday of each month. The time is 6:30. We would love to see you there. You can meet me, Cynthia Jones (a 210 pound loser), Charlie (the unofficial host), my DH Bob, and a host of others.

Where do you live? There are several other D/FW dinners throughout the month, from Burleson to Plano to Dallas, etc. I only attend the one, but I can get you info on any that might interest you.

I'm in Fort Worth, though Arlington isn't a far drive at all. I'd like to know of some of the other group meeting times, sounds like something I need. Thanks

hi my name is nikki. I just got banded on 08/18/06. I am trying to stay positive and I think people who have had the procedure can do me some good. I love to come to one of the Saturday dinners to meet all of the participants.

The only one I go to is the one in Arlington - third Thursday of each month (6:30 PM) at Mercado Juarez.

There IS a private room involved, but no password. Just tell them you're with the Lap Band group - or the fat people. Either way, they will point you in the right direction.

Attendance varies, but I'd say on the average, there are usually about 15-20 people there.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
