Hi all! I'm Kim and I'm new to this process. I've had my initial consult with my surgeon and am currently on the 6 month supervised diet. I'm so excited to get this journey going. I've been lurking around reading different posts and I love this site! Just wanted to say Hi and thank you to everyone for all the information. It's so cool to hear about everyone's journey and feel like there are so many that understand how I feel!

Hi Kim. I'm in San Antonio. I start my Pre-op diet on Monday and have my surgery on the 18th. Welcome to the journey. You are worth it. Hugs.

Welcome, Kim!!!!

Texans are certainly welcome here!

I'm an Iowa youngster, age 64, who lives in Florida now.

We have quite a range of experiences with the operation here as you have noticed.

Make yourself at home!

I too am a ft worth girl! Congrats on your surgery! If you have any questions- let me know. I'm almost 3 months out and down 52lbs. I love my sleeve.

Ive been to Waxahachie a time or two hoping to see the ghost at Catfish Plantation

Haha that's awesome! My cousins husband grew up in the house before it was a restaurant. He swears it's haunted. And I'm friends with the original owners daughter

I am also a Texas girl. Born in Ft Worth but currently live in GA. I miss TX and get back as often as I can! You can take the girl out of the state, but you can't take the state out of he girl! I also am in the early stages of this journey. All i have left are the Nutritionist visits, then submit to the insurance company for approval. I think my surgery will likely be early May. This site has been a real blessing for support and information along the way! Good luck!

God Bless Texas!!!!
