Lap Band Support Group Montreal

Hi Folks,

My name is Jay and I was banded November 18th 2011 by Dr. Steven Miller in Montreal. One of the things I feel is lacking in Montreal is a support group for fellow bandsters. I would like to start one. My thoughts are we could start with a monthly group and if it is successful move to bi-weekly.

If you are interested please email me at jayrobertson76@hotmail.com or reply to this post with your cotact email

I would be happy to host the first support meeting in my home and will reach out to see if I can get a guest speaker(ie. nutritionist, successful bandster etc..)

Thanks for reading

Jay

Hello Jay,

I was banded at l'Hotel Dieu de Montreal on June 15th 2011 and I also feel that there aren't enough support groups. I think you have a great idea and keep me in touch. I'm not from Montreal but would like to go to a meeting if possible.

Godd luck on you journey and keep me posted
