Hello everyone

I live in Texas and thought that if would be fun to see how many people living in Texas are banded or going to be banded. So I started a group called Texans Banddters. If you live in or around Texas please join the group. :lol:Good luck.

Hi,What an awesome idea. I'm from Silsbee,Tx. I was banded in Mexico on 11-21-08. To date I've lost only 35 lbs, but I've lost several inches. Weight loss is slow,but I'm content as long as I'm losing inches also.:thumbup:

Hello!! I'm in Alvin, TX, south of Houston. I was banded Dec. 29, 2008. I have lost 20lbs since surgery. It has been slow going, but I think my doctor has me close to my sweet spot, because I am losing now.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
