Hi Everyone,

I am new to WLS. I was sleeved on July 18. I would love to meet other people in the DFW Area. I am looking for support groups to attend.

Thanks,
Martie

Hi Martie !!

Welcome to the TMB  - you came to one of the best places I know for LUV and support !!

Others will chime in during the day - alot of us are at work with limited time and connections - so don't be alarmed at the ## of hugs you'll get !! hheheheh  

We have an Aug event planned too..........8-27 at Mercado Juarez which probably will NOT be a great choice for YOU and your newness - but you can come and meet us though
....:)

  • Pease check out Dr. Connie Stapleton's Website. A lot of good information on there for all WLS patients regardless of the surgery you chose.  Good luck to all and I'm here for you if you want to send me an email.  I'll answer it as soon as possible.  
  • Total Lost:  139 lbs
  • Current Weight:  263  
  • As of 11-10-13 I have had weight gain.  Not happy about that.
  • RNY: 10-16-07 = 338:  Highest weight: 350+  Lowest Weight: 199

Hello Martie,

Welcome to our community. I just joined myself and was sleeved on July 20th. I am in the DFW Area (Carrollton) to be exact. Let us know if you have any questions.

Thanks!

 Thanks everyone,
It's nice to have the support of people in the area. I live in Farmers Branch and my Doctor is in Colleyville, so I am going to go to the support classes there. But I would like to meet other people in the area to chat with.

 Marlie.....Dr. Kim has his support group this coming wednesday night in his office at 6:30 for all his patients.    Then I am a OH Support Group leader and my meeting is this coming sunday in Keller.   It is from 3:30-4:30 @ Carroll Watkins Driving School    303 N. Main St. Keller ( Next door to Dollar General ).    We also have a support breakfast the last saturday of each month in Haltom City 5000 Western Center blvd at Sunny Street Cafe.    That is not mentioning Central Market breakfast in Fort Worth and the TMB OH dinners that they are starting back up.   LOTS of support here on OH.
Hope to see you wednesday night at Dr. Kim's SG.    

Hugs and blessings ~~~ Vivian

Thanks Vivian,
I am going to try to make Dr kim's support group. I work in Plano and get off at 500pm So I have to get all the way to his office by 630p. So hopefully I can get there with traffic and all. Looking forward to meeting you.
