Mommabird 367 Posted October 11, 2015 Not currently. I've been after Scott and White to start one for most of a year now. There's some talk of peer mentoring (I told them that I'd be interested) but haven't heard anything more about it. There are monthly meetings in Temple and Harker Heights, but that's a ways for you to drive. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jjsmimi 1 Posted November 29, 2015 I live in Cedar Park. That's near Round Rock and Austin. Anyone near me? I'm scheduled for bypass surgery on Dec. 8th after having sleeve surgery 15 months ago. I started at 363 and am down to 255 but weight loss has stopped so we are doing the second surgery. I would love some feedback on life with gastric bypass.
