These support group meeting are manned by Dietitian Helen Bauzon.

The overall purpose is to be motivated and made accountable to help you move forward with your weight loss journey in partnership with the lap band, including taste testing of a new food product.

The up coming meeting on Thursday night 23rd August, guest speaker Dr Linda Wilson will be presenting.

Dr Linda Wilson specialises in the 'stress' response in all it's many forms from emotions to cravings to unhelpful habits.

You will feel empowered to look at your situation from a different perspective and also be introduced to tools that could change everything - when you apply them.

Linda's presentations are lighthearted and informative and will give you lots to think about in relation to your unique challenges.

You will learn what is contributing to your thoughts and behaviours that you might not even know about!

Find out what could be your greatest asset when dealing with yourself - and you already have it!

Hey Helen my name is Amira and I'm going to start attending your monthly groups. But I was wondering if with having a band the last 2years weather I can use a flext belt. It's a electronic stimulating belt to help tone my core muscles. I know this is the lazy way. But is it a danger to use it with the band. Amira
