Hello! I am in League City and I used Dr Hollis as well. Trueresults does have a support group that meets once a month but I dont know of one in our immediate area. This was the contact info in the email I get every month regarding it:

Contact : Betrice to RSVP at 713-796-9666!!

I have never gone but whenever I go in for a fill I notice the signs and think that I should check it out. Then I forget all about it, LOL.

Dr. Hollis did my surgery back in March of 2008 and I've lost 108 lbs. went from 344 to 238 right now. I would have probably lost more but went on vacation and had unfill right around the hurricane and didn't get a fill for a few monthes. I just recently got back up to my 6cc's I was at before the Unfill. Its not hard to lose weight once you get it. your NRG level sky rockets and with ever pound lost you feel lighter. I started running/ walking etc... I was up to 14 miles a day. You'll see as time progresses. One recommendation I have is that don't just use any ole Protein mix. Go to the Vitamin shoppe or GNC or whatever place and get something called ISPOPURE. The best ISPOPURE mix is the fruit punch. Also if you want to avoid loose skin, some Amino acids (liquid) this helps with the elesticity of the skin and makes it look nicer.

Yes, I was banded a week ago today! Doing well! I do miss eating food, one more week before that! I feel almost 100% myself again. Just waiting for this weight to start dropping off.

start walking, walk walk walk. it helps with the referred pain and gets rid of the gasseous feeling. I was up to 15 miles of walking a day before I started running. Find a good pair of shoes with good soles. After a few monthes they probably won't fit any more. I went from wearing a 14 wide to now wearing a 13 ½ amazing you get so big even your feet were fat.
