Go to the yahoo group, Houston Area Bandsters. I am most certain that there is a group that meets out in the cypresswood area. You can join that group and post online to find out for a meeting near you.

Hey, I have kind of a complicated life. Anyone from either of these areas? I could sure use someone to talk to. I am a bit of a loner when it comes to the LapBand. I chose not to tell anyone, but my husband. My husband does not understand weight problems. But he is the only one I trusted with this information. Anyone there?????

I was banded July 27th in MX and weight at the peak was 238 and the day of surgery I was 231.5 and now 210. That is not a lot of lost weight, but it is at least moving in the right direction. I know the next 10-15 pounds will make a much bigger empact on the way I look than those first 20 pounds. I am down a full size. Gone from size 18 being almost too small.....they were getting mighty tight. Now 16 is comfortable. ahahahahhhhhhh.

I doubt I go to any meeting because I chose to do this surgery in secret. Nobody knows other than hubby.

Please tell nobody. This is highly confidential.

God bless

Wild

Hey Jo Ann, I'm in Sugar Land too, I was considering the band group that meets on Saturdays in Houston, Kirby and 59 area at the Whole foods. I haven't been yet though...

Faybie, you are local! :wow2: I was considering that group too, but I'm never really sure which Saturday it is. Do you know! Unless it is the 16th, I can make it. I'd love to meet you. PM me your local information and at least we can meet for coffee.

Anybody want to meet this Wednesday 12/13 at 6:30 PM at Humble City Cafe for dinner or a cuppa...to say hi, chat, and plan a NE support group? I'll call for reservations if I can get a head count.... Or if that day doesn't work, let's talk.

Frankly, I'd prefer a lunch meeting but I'm guessing that won't work as well for everybody...

I'll meet you on Wednesday. I think a Saturday morning would be nice for meetings, but let's see how this goes. What name/group for the reservation?

Great! I'll take a head count Tuesday and make a reservation under BANDSTERS. I'm looking forward to it.

Humble City Cafe is by SE corner of the intersection of 59 and 1960, on Main Street. Can give exact directions as needed.

Start a new thread and call it NE Bandsters - Kingwood/Humble/Attascocita and post the invite. You might get more feedback by starting a new thread in the Texas forum.

Go to Texas in the list of threads (where this one is located) and hit start thread. Give it a title and post your message. It will then appear when someone selects NEW POSTS and they can quickly see it. If you have problems let me know and I'll start it for you.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        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!

      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!
