Helen, where in Quinlan do you live? I lived there as well as Lake Tawakoni. I was off of 751. Let's get together for sure.....I love your comment about Chili's!

I live off 429 and 751, by Scottie's (just west of Duck Cove). It's the Kitsee Knoll area.

I know that area well....I delivered pizza part time for awhile for trip money and delivered a lot in that area.....funny....pizza days are just about over...I have been having private celebrations every time I eat something I won't have again, possibly ever....it feels good!!

Did you work for Jim's pizza? They're the only ones I know of that deliver out there. We order from them so much that now when I call in, they just ask "are you the ones with the white van in the driveway?" and confirm that month's gate code...lol

Hello! I was banded Dec 27,2006. I have lost about 35 lbs and will have my second fill Apr 25. I have had a pretty positive experience so far. I actually work with about a dozen ladies who have had the surgery within the last yr so we have a good support team here at work.

      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. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
