Is there anything here in the Springs, I am now to the point I am so sad with myself. I need the support of others who are going thru this or have been thru it, my lapband and I are not working well together, and its time I got back on track, how about it Colorado Peeps.... anyone out there?!?!

There is a support group that meets at Penrose Main Hosp. I'll see if I can find a link for you.

I don't know if all the info is the same, but it would be worth calling to see about it if you want to go to the meetings. I'm pretty sure they still have them at Penrose main.

Hey Ruffcat,

How are you doing now? Are you feeling any better? Did you try the support groups?

Penrose seems to have the main support group I can find. I'm pre op waiting on my last appt before scheduling the big day. I would love to find fellow bandsters so I have the support. My family is supportive, but they really have no clue what I'm going through. Most of the people I met at classes were going either for sleeve or gastric. Let me know if you find anything!

I'm still in the area. To be honest, LBT was my best support. You sure are welcome to send me a message or an email......... maybe we could meet sometime.
