D/FW Area



Recommended Posts

Hmmmm, let's see...... I wonder if Texas Stadium is available for a get together? LOL There certainly are a bunch of folks in here from DFW, not to mention Texas. How about Pappadaux's? On the north side of Dallas, right there by central expressway. I'm not sure of the cross street.

I would suggest something like the civic center in McKinney, but some of the DFWers might get lost if they get outside of the George Bush...hehehe

Other's thoughts on the subject?????

Not familiar with the Central Expressway Pappadeuxs, but do know the one at 35 and Northwest Highway...

Would the Lewisville area be a good one? No Pappadeuxs, but there are lots of restaurants by Vista Ridge?

Just throwing out ideas...

Hi guys. I live in Keller and work in Coppell (near Lewisville / Irving / Grapevine area). Either one of those places would be ok with me. I don't know Dallas all that well, but I can find my way anywhere - just not back again ;-).

Holy cow Tammy - size 8?????? Big congrats there!!!

dinner sounds great to me. How about Uncle Julio's, Pappadeaux, or PF Changs off of the Toll Road?

Terri, it ain't nearly as bad as you can make it out to be in your mind. Think of the WORST thing that could happen, short of dying, and you won't come anywhere near that.

Janet, don't feel bad, we have to drive about 35 miles just to go to the dang Walmart. And that's an impressive list.....just forgot OOOoooooone little thing. Where is the Jason's Deli???? LMAO (it's a joke, people...)

LOL, you're right, though, I should post it here as well!

Hmmm, I'll wait until we have a time set & then post the details here.

Terri, the surgery really wasn't that bad. I had worked myself up into a lather, but Mikey (my hubby) talked me down. He had me start listing all the reasons I was doing it -- while deep breathing. I went to sleep waiting for the surgery center to get setup, lol. I don't remember a thing after getting my IV! :D

So my advice, breathe!!

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

    • buildabetteranna

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
