Kitchener-Waterloo-Cambridge Anyone?

I was just banded four days ago and am looking for some local support. I know there is a group in London (over and hour to the west) and in Mississauga (over and hour to the east) and just wondered if there were any bandsters meeting closer?

you could also post on canadalapbanders Canadianlapbanders.com A number of eastern bandsters subscribe to this site run by a nurse who is banded. I am from BC but thought I would answer your enquiry so you know there are eastern chat sites. Good luck.

Hey! I am new to Cambridge (moved here in Sept, 2010) and don't really know anyone yet. I am getting my lap band surgery on Fri. Jan 21 and I'm getting super nervous! I'd love to get to know you and help each other out! I'll give you some of my stats:

I'm 28 yrs old, newly married (Sept. 11, 2010), highest weight 378 lbs in Oct, current weight 365 lbs. I'd love to lose 200 pounds!!

I'm getting banded at SWLC in mississauga by Dr. Cobourn.

Tell me a bit about yourself :) I'd love to hear all about your surgery day and how it's gone since then - it may help calm my nerves!

Can't wait to hear from you.

Kerry

You can also surf over to the obesity hep board. It's a more general board, but they definitely have weekly K-W support meetings you could attend.

HI there,

I was banded a 2 1/2 years ago, lost 100 lbs and have keep it off but still have lots more to go and I'd really like to get back on the horse and work this tool.

I would be super interested in a support group too. Give me a shout if you've found anything.

Thanks,

Kiz

Maybe we could get a group together for coffee sometime in KW? I am from Stratford and there are a few other bandsters I travel with to CVC from Kitchener.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
