Hello all - just a thought - and a lot of experience with groups meeting up in Houston - maybe we could alternate a meet up, every other week or even every week, and change venues so that everyone get a chance to travel? Overall we have a huge area, but the more you break it down you are going to see less attendees. If we have a large group and rotate, the logistics of the meetings could be handled by a person(s) closer to that area.

Just a thought - and if anyone would like to meetup in NW Houston let me know.

Hi all, I'm going to be sleeved on Tuesday in Denver, but my husband just got a job in Houston and we will be relocating there by October 1. Would love to meet other people and also need to find a doc for post op care.

I live in the Heights area, but would be willing to drive.

I am 63 years old and eat very nutritious food. However, I am about 60 pounds overweight and have recently been given blood pressure meds. Should I consider bariatric surgery? If so, which?

I would be willing to organize. I am a therapist near Willowbrook mall. I have some space. PM me evenings that work best for you. Let's see what we can get started.

      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. 🤞
